Hello,

I was wondering if folks would be interested in a quick video chat some time next week? We have met in person during past ICFPs, and I think it is fun to interact a little more directly with people, even if it happens quite rarely :)

Potential topics to discuss could be:

* how are things going with the committee---there doesn't seem to be much discussion happening on proposal,

* I would like to hear more about the Haskell Foundation idea, and I think it might be easier to convey the vision in person, rather than trying to figure it out through the formal documents

* There is a ticket about potentially defining a GHC2020 multi-extension: I think that's an interesting idea, but we may want to discuss (1) how do other folks feel about such a thing, (2) what's the most constructive way to make progress on this kind of topic, as there are likely going to be many different opinions on what GHC2020 should be.

Thoughts?
