In response to Brian and Ian's helpful comments, I've added a bunch more
stuff to our proposal about packages.  If I have missed anything, let me
know.

If you or anyone else thinks the choices made there are poor ones,
continue to say so.  It's a helpful process.

One particular point: 

| 2b) Exporting the contents of an external module qualified
| 
|        module Foo
|                 ( qualified module P
|                 ) where

While this might be a good idea, it's an orthogonal one, and the
proposal doesn't tackle it.  One thing at a time!

Simon
