I just wanted to point out that there was a poll on which extensions people would like to have enabled by default as part of the 2019 state of Haskell survey, the results are here:

https://taylor.fausak.me/2019/11/16/haskell-survey-results/#s2q5

Personally I'm not sure we need another poll. Data from actual usage (i.e. Hackage) would be more valuable I would think.

Cheers

Simon

I took Alejandro’s draft proposal test, added the process that I
outlined, added steps for hackage stats and community polls, and put it
now up for discussion at
https://github.com/ghc-proposals/ghc-proposals/pull/372

Please discuss there if this needs refinement.

Two open questions to be discussed (there):
