Greetings from an old member!
I am curious why folks are voting against BlockArguments? These days it
and ImportQualifiedPost are the two extensions I turn on in pretty much any
new project.
Is the thinking that it it will be removed in the future? That would be
very unfortunate, as I use it a lot, and the change would affect a lot of
code. If not, are folks concerned about some sort of error it might cause?
I see zero benefit in having to write BlockArguments in the extension field
of my Cabal file, but it's also not that onerous, so not a big deal, just
curious.
Happy new year!

Ballot boxes are upen until Jan 8th, but it is probably better for everyone if votes are casted sooner. Maybe we can do it within a week?
5 more days of voting, still waiting for the ballot from Moritz and Chris.
So far, we have DerivingStrategies, DisambiguateRecordFields, GADTs with MonoLocalBinds and LambdaCase are definitely in, and TypeData and BlockArguments are definitely out.
Cheers, Joachim
