[Haskell-community] Design Proposal for Haskell.org

[Gershom B]

David -- that sounds about right to me (in terms of people liking the
broad strokes and raising issues that are important but don't need to
be in scope for this initial phase).

If you have anything else you want to do first, let me know, otherwise
I'll go ahead and accept the pull and, barring any further discussion
that stands in the way, redeploy sometime this week.

We can then proceed in a lot of directions from there :-)

Sound good all?

Cheers,
Gershom
