Does anyone have objections? If not, I will mark the proposal accepted in 2 weeks.
not a full fledged objection yet, but I am unsure how that fits with the overall direction we have for namespaces, as outlined in https://github.com/ghc-proposals/ghc-proposals/blob/master/proposals/0378-de... It this meant to be a short-gap measure that helps us to get to towards a bolder destination? Or is it a half-way step for people who like type-level computation, but don’t want to go all the way, and is expected to stay around? (Or maybe I am missing the point.) Unless I am missing the point, I can’t really make an informed decision before we have concluded our policy discussion, in particular, on whether we want to go towards a future where everyone is welcome to turn extensions on and off to build their little fine-grained preferred language islands, or whether that is something we want to avoid and use extensions only as stepping stones towards a ((eventually) single) future Haskell, at the cost of having to tell some people that they can’t expect that every possible dialect of Haskell will be supported.
