Comment (by vanto):

 Hi,
 It is too complicated for me to open a proposal.
 I do not understand the English language well.
 If this idea interests someone, it can use it and implement it.
 I did not get much feedback in this request.
 Thank you to those who have already given theirs.\\
 I give up.\\
 \\
 For reminder, here was my proposal:\\
 Write the names of the people who are in the Committee, in the compiler,
 from Committee No. 1 to the present one, to pay tribute to them.

 In September of 1987 a meeting was held at the conference on
 Functional Programming Languages and Computer Architecture in
 Portland, Oregon, to discuss an unfortunate situation in the functional
 programming community.
 It was decided that a committee should be formed to design such a
 language, providing faster communication of new ideas, a stable foundation
 for real applications development, and a vehicle through which others
 would be encouraged to use functional languages.\\

 And the Haskell language was born...\\

 In September of 2017, Haskell will be 30 years old.\\

 This seems like a good year for this proposal.\\

 For this you have to rewrite the names found in the Haskell Report 2010,
 and add the rest of the people of other years.
 We can also add those who have contributed in the past and present in
 various way, or write only the names of the people who were part of
 Commitee No. 1.
