Dear Committee, since the last status, it seems we have become much more willing to send proposals back for revision. (BTW, you can make my life easier to always mention a status change like this on the mailing list.) Also, * Sandy Maguire stepped down, and we started a call for nominations. (I have already received two self-nominations) * we were asked to review these proposals: #177: Simple constrained type families, Shepherd: Richard #273: Local Types, Shepherd: Eric #285: -XNoImplicitForAll, Shepherd: Simon Marlow #246: Overloaded Quotations, Shepherd: Simon PJ #265: Unlifted Datatypes, Shepherd: Simon Marlow #282: RecordDotSyntax, Shepherd: Simon PJ #301: Rename PtrRep to BoxedRep, Shepherd: Joachim * we have a recommendation from the shepherd about: #195: newtype Q (Texp a) (rec: accept) #285: -XNoImplicitForAll (rec: accept) #246: Overloaded Quotations (rec: accept) #194: Updated partial type signatures (rec: accept) #293: Tweaks to #229 (rec: accept) #273: Local Types (rec: needs revision) #265: Unlifted Datatypes (rec: accept) #301: Rename PtrRep to BoxedRep (rec: accept) * we have sent the following proposals back to revision #177: Simple constrained type families #285: -XNoImplicitForAll #273: Local Types #194: Updated partial type signatures #195: newtype Q (Texp a) #274: Quick Look Impredicativity (rec: accept) * we decided about the following proposals #246: Overloaded Quotations (accept) #293: Tweaks to #229 (accept) We currently have to act on the following 2 proposals, down by one! ## Waiting for Shepherd action RecordDotSyntax language extension proposal Shepherd: Simon PJ https://github.com/ghc-proposals/ghc-proposals/pull/282 (Being a prime example of Wadler’s law, it may come to voting.) ## Waiting for committee decision Rename PtrRep to BoxedRep Shepherd: Joachim https://github.com/ghc-proposals/ghc-proposals/pull/301 Acceptance imminent.
