Hi,

isn’t that the same thing? If the Haskell Foundation (or someone else)
says “we’ll fund all accepted proposal”, then my proposed requirement
would be vacuously satisfied.

Personally, though, I prefer if this committee does not also have to
worry about resource allocation for the HF…

Nor do I think that the HF should fund “random good ideas” – there will
always be more good ideas than resources to implement them.

Cheers,
Joachim
