Hi All, Pull request 625 (https://github.com/ghc-proposals/ghc-proposals/pull/625), is not a proposal as usual, but primarily amending the readme and principles. Simon has taken the Stability discussion we have had last year, and integrated the crystalized General Rules into the readme and principles. In my opinion, we have now debated this topic sufficiently, and found a formulation that captures the intent we want to set forward for the evolution of GHC. I think this spells out clear guardrails for GHCs evolution, as well as providing reassurance to commercial users of GHC regarding backwards compatibility and migration support though deprecation cycles when breakage is needed. As such, I strongly recommend acceptance of the proposal. While there has been a recent spark in discussion of warning flags, I do not believe that discussion to be productive towards the change this proposal tries to bring. I'd like to ask the committee to cast their final votes on this amendment to the readme and principles, by the end of the coming week. Unless someone objects, I'll merge this as it is now on the 10th of February. Best, Moritz
