Thanks!

Subject: [ghc-steering-committee] Meet during ICFP?

 

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?
