Dear Committee, First-class existential types has been submitted by Richard https://github.com/ghc-proposals/ghc-proposals/pull/374 https://github.com/goldfirere/ghc-proposals/blob/existentials/proposals/0473... Exciting stuff! This feels, at least to me, like a proposal with major implications – not least because I believe it means that type equality will now involve some form of term equivalence, and may thus affect what kind of Core transformations are still type-preserving. Therefore I would suggest Simon PJ to shepherd this proposal. Please guide us to a conclusion as outlined in https://github.com/ghc-proposals/ghc-proposals#committee-process Thanks, Joachim -- Joachim Breitner mail@joachim-breitner.de http://www.joachim-breitner.de/
