Re: GHC proposals not rendering

I suspect this is a regression specific to reStructuredText rendering, but it's affecting a few different repositories [1] so hopefully Github will fix it at some point. In the meantime, for accepted proposals one can use https://ghc-proposals.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ which Joachim set up some time ago [2]. I'm not sure how frequently it is updated, as it doesn't have the GHC2024 proposal listed. And it sometimes tries to redirect to https://ghc-proposals.haskell.org which apparently doesn't exist. Joachim, do you know the status of this? (Of course, this doesn't help for rendering proposals that have not yet been accepted.)

Maybe there's a config parameter that can be changed? It's extremely annoying, and a definite regression. Is there anyone at Github we can ask?

If the problem is size then I rather doubt that there is anything that we can do about this beyond open a ticket and hope that someone notices. Indeed this sort of issue is why I have in the past been rather skeptical of relying on external services to host GHC's development. You can only expect to get the service that you pay for; in this case, that is nothing :)

However, I am a bit curious as to why Rust's RFCs process has never run into this limitation. Perhaps it only affects RestructuredText?
