Dear Committee,
let’s do another ~bi~trimonthly status update. There was an uptick in
submissions recently, and our backlog is on the large side; it looks
like almost everyone
So what has happened since the last one?
* Baldur has stepped down, Arnaud has renewed their term and Adam Gundy joined.
Thanks all!
* I started a discussion on whether we should have GHC2021. I sense some hesitation,
but not enough yet to discourage me, so I stated to draft a proposal at
https://github.com/ghc-proposals/ghc-proposals/pull/559
and you are all invited to nominate those extensions you’d like to be on by
default in the future.
* we were asked to review these proposals:
#532: Clean up implicit binding, Shepherd: Arnaud
#512: NoFieldSelectors as datatype annotation, Shepherd: Vlad
#526: Applicative Comprehensions, Shepherd: Simon M
#540: parallelism semaphores, Shepherd: Eric
#547: Remove kind constraints, Shepherd: Arnaud
#529: Template Haskell quotes as patterns, Shepherd: Adam
#451: WARNING pragma with category, Shepherd: Joachim
#546: Make Symbol a newtype over String, Shepherd: Chris
#556: fix signature scoping #448, Shepherd: Richard
* we have a recommendation from the shepherd about:
#522: Or patterns. Recommendation: accept
#516: Introduce `-Wincomplete-record-selectors`, Rec: accept
#270: Support pun-free code. Rec: accept
#500: Add implicit import proposal, rec: reject
#547: Remove kind constraints, Recommendation: accept
#451: WARNING pragma with category, rec: accept
* we have sent the following proposals back to revision
(none)
* we decided about the following proposals
#517: Require implementors before proposal submission (reject)
#516: Introduce `-Wincomplete-record-selectors (accept)
#547: Remove kind constraints, Recommendation: accept
#500: Add implicit import proposal (reject)
We currently have to act on the following 12 proposals, double
the number as last time!
