Dear Committee, we have 9 votes in. Dear Cale and Eric, can we have your votes please? As always, the table https://github.com/ghc-proposals/ghc-proposals/blob/ghc2021/proposals/0000-g... has the current data. We had the most discussion so far about: * The innnocence of PostfixOperators * The effect of UnicodeSyntax on error messages * Whether InstanceSigs is a good design * Whether OverloadedString is harmless enough. I see that three is less clear signal on odd extensions that are obsolete, on by default, implied by others etc. That’s probably fine and no need to worry; some of them will be resolved by virtue of being implied by others. We can also sanity-check the final result, and include all implied ones in the final design. So where do we stand? Applying the actual quota of ⅔ out of 11, i.e. 8 votes, these would go in no matter how Cale and Eric vote: BangPatterns, BinaryLiterals, ConstraintKinds, DeriveDataTypeable, DeriveFoldable, DeriveFunctor, DeriveGeneric, DeriveLift, DeriveTraversable, EmptyCase, EmptyDataDecls, EmptyDataDeriving, ExplicitForAll, FlexibleContexts, FlexibleInstances, GADTSyntax, HexFloatLiterals, ImportQualifiedPost, KindSignatures, MultiParamTypeClasses, NamedFieldPuns, NumericUnderscores, StandaloneDeriving, ViewPatterns The following have 6 or 7 votes, i.e. they’d go in if we extrapolate from the current votes: ConstrainedClassMethods, DerivingStrategies, ExistentialQuantification, GeneralisedNewtypeDeriving, InstanceSigs, NegativeLiterals, PostfixOperators, RankNTypes, RecordWildCards, ScopedTypeVariables, TupleSections, TypeApplications, TypeFamilies, TypeOperators, TypeSynonymInstances These extensions are short one vote: DataKinds, DerivingVia, GADTs, LambdaCase, PolyKinds So how sad would we all be? This is the sadness report for each committee member, showing the symmetric difference between their ballot and the (extrapolated) result. alejandro would miss: DataKinds, DerivingVia, GADTs, LambdaCase, MonadFailDesugaring, NamedWildCards, NoMonomorphismRestriction, NullaryTypeClasses, NumDecimals, OverloadedLists, OverloadedStrings, PolyKinds, StandaloneKindSignatures doesn’t want: RankNTypes arnaud would miss: Arrows, ExplicitNamespaces, ForeignFunctionInterface, FunctionalDependencies, GADTs, MonadFailDesugaring, MonoLocalBinds, PartialTypeSignatures, StarIsType, TypeFamilyDependencies doesn’t want: ExistentialQuantification, ImportQualifiedPost, InstanceSigs, NamedFieldPuns, RankNTypes, RecordWildCards, ScopedTypeVariables, TupleSections, TypeSynonymInstances iavor would miss: BlockArguments, MultiWayIf, NoMonomorphismRestriction, NullaryTypeClasses, OverloadedStrings, ParallelListComp, RecursiveDo doesn’t want: ConstrainedClassMethods, ConstraintKinds, DeriveFoldable, DeriveFunctor, DeriveTraversable, DerivingStrategies, EmptyCase, GADTSyntax, GeneralisedNewtypeDeriving, InstanceSigs, KindSignatures, NegativeLiterals, PostfixOperators, TupleSections, TypeApplications, TypeFamilies, TypeOperators joachim would miss: DataKinds, DerivingVia, ForeignFunctionInterface, GADTs, LambdaCase, MonoLocalBinds, NamedWildCards, NondecreasingIndentation, RoleAnnotations, StarIsType, UnicodeSyntax, UnliftedFFITypes, UnliftedNewtypes doesn’t want: ConstrainedClassMethods, ScopedTypeVariables, TypeSynonymInstances richard would miss: BlockArguments, DefaultSignatures, DerivingVia, DisambiguateRecordFields, ExplicitNamespaces, LexicalNegation, NamedWildCards, NumDecimals, ParallelListComp, PolyKinds, RoleAnnotations, StandaloneKindSignatures, TemplateHaskellQuotes, UnicodeSyntax, UnliftedNewtypes doesn’t want: NegativeLiterals, RecordWildCards, ScopedTypeVariables, TypeFamilies simonm would miss: DataKinds, DefaultSignatures, ForeignFunctionInterface, GADTs, LambdaCase, LiberalTypeSynonyms, MonoLocalBinds, MultiWayIf, NoMonomorphismRestriction, NondecreasingIndentation, NumDecimals, OverloadedStrings, PatternSynonyms, PolyKinds, UnicodeSyntax doesn’t want: DeriveLift, DerivingStrategies, NumericUnderscores, TypeApplications, TypeOperators, ViewPatterns spj would miss: MonoLocalBinds, NoMonomorphismRestriction, NullaryTypeClasses, OverloadedLists, OverloadedStrings, ParallelListComp, PolyKinds, RecursiveDo, RoleAnnotations, StandaloneKindSignatures, StarIsType doesn’t want: DerivingStrategies, GeneralisedNewtypeDeriving, NegativeLiterals, RecordWildCards, TupleSections, TypeFamilies tom would miss: BlockArguments, DataKinds, DefaultSignatures, DerivingVia, DisambiguateRecordFields, DuplicateRecordFields, ExplicitNamespaces, FunctionalDependencies, LambdaCase, LexicalNegation, LiberalTypeSynonyms, MagicHash, MultiWayIf, NamedWildCards, NullaryTypeClasses, NumDecimals, PackageImports, ParallelListComp, PolyKinds, QuasiQuotes, RoleAnnotations, StandaloneKindSignatures, TemplateHaskell, TemplateHaskellQuotes, TypeFamilyDependencies, UnboxedSums, UnboxedTuples, UnicodeSyntax, UnliftedNewtypes doesn’t want: none! vitaly would miss: DataKinds, DerivingVia, GADTs, LambdaCase, MonadFailDesugaring, StarIsType doesn’t want: ConstrainedClassMethods, ExistentialQuantification, PostfixOperators -- Joachim Breitner mail@joachim-breitner.de http://www.joachim-breitner.de/
