Dear Committee,

this is your secretary speaking:

Unlifed Datatypes
has been proposed by Sebastian Graf
https://github.com/ghc-proposals/ghc-proposals/pull/265
https://github.com/sgraf812/ghc-proposals/blob/unlifted-data/proposals/0000-unlifted-datatypes.rst

I propose Simon Marlow as the shepherd, as the expert on low-level stuff.

Please reach consensus as described in
https://github.com/ghc-proposals/ghc-proposals#committee-process
I suggest you make a recommendation, in a new e-mail thread with the
proposal number in the subject, about the decision, maybe point out
debatable points, and assume that anyone who stays quiet agrees with
you.

BTW, I just checked the proposal process documentation, and it says:

  • * Now the shepherd proposes to accept or reject the proposal. To do so, they

    • post their recommendation, with a rationale, on the GitHub discussion thread,
    • label the pull request as Pending committee review,
    • re-title the proposal pull request, appending (under review) at the end. (This enables easy email filtering.)
    • drop a short mail to the mailing list informing the committee that discussion has started.
    • which isn't exactly in line with the paragraph above. Shouldn't the first line be something like "post their recommendation, with a rationale, to the committee mailing list", and remove the final bullet?

    Cheers
    Simon

     

    Thanks,
    Joachim
