Re: [ghc-steering-committee] GHC Steering Committee Status

Joachim, thanks ever so much for all of this — humbled. I am sorry — I missed being formally assigned to #270 (pun-free code) — I will endeavour to do better and pick up the ball.

Dear Committee,

let’s do another bimonthly status update . It seems that the last two months were quite quiet on the mailing list, but we did get a bunch of new submissions. Time to get active again!

So what has happened since the last one?

* PSA: You make my life when preparing these reports easier if every state change comes with a (small) email to the list. In particular sending a proposal back for revision is often not noted on the list.

* we were asked to review these proposals:

#511 Deep Subsumption, Shephard: Arnaud #330 Decorate exceptions with backtrace information, Shepherd: Vladislav #518 Type vs Constraint proposal, Shepherd: Eric #515 Relaxing HasField constraints, Shepherd: Tom #517 Require implementors before proposal submission, Shepherd: Simon PJ #522 Or Patterns, Shepherd: Richard #516 Introduce `-Wincomplete-record-selectors`, Shepherd: Eric

* I reassigned the following proposal

#500: Add implicit import proposal, New Shepherd: Simon M.

* we have a recommendation from the shepherd about:

#518 Type vs Constraint proposal (accept) #517 Require implementors before proposal submission (accept) #515 Relaxing HasField constraints (accept) #511 Deep Subsumption (accept)

* we have sent the following proposals back to revision

#330 Decorate exceptions with backtrace information #473: First-class existential types #454: Custom type warnings

* we decided about the following proposals

#448 Modern Scoped Type Variables (accept) #518 Type vs Constraint proposal (accept) (merge still pending a ✓ from Richard) #496 Nothing {} (acccept) #511 Deep Subsumption (accept)

We currently have to act on the following 6 proposals, same number as last time.
