* I'm happy for us to define GHC2024 now.
Yay :-)
* The votes were interesting. I would also love to see stats on extension usage, derived from trawling Hackage. I'm sure this has been done, probably many times. Do we have data?
Not at the moment. Any volunteers to gather them?
* Several features were suggested that got more votes than the ones currently in the GHC2024 proposal. Why exclude them from our committee voting? E.g. RecordWildCards seems popular.
Nobody actively nominated them as part of https://github.com/ghc-proposals/ghc-proposals/pull/613 I guess you get different result is you ask in what place “please actively nominate what you want to see” and in another, more crowded place “here is a long list of option, just tick what you like”. In the concrete case of RecordWildCards there are also strongly held believes against it (it violates the LSP). Maybe that’s why nobody nominated it. (I personally like to use it occasionally, but that’s the reason why _I_ wouldn’t push for it.) Cheers, Joachim -- Joachim Breitner mail@joachim-breitner.de http://www.joachim-breitner.de/
