Hi, Welcome Vlad! I updated https://github.com/ghc-proposals/ghc-proposals#who-is-the-committee to include Vlad, and note the renewed terms for Richard, Iavor and me. We have now 12 members, so we are well-staffed now. This means that although Vitaly and Eric’s terms will expire in September and Arnauds in July next year, this does not trigger a round of nominations (and they can continue to stick around), and the next round of nominations will be in January 2023, when also Tom, Cale and Alejandro’s terms expire. This is assuming there are no early downsteppings. Am Mittwoch, den 10.03.2021, 20:42 +0000 schrieb Richard Eisenberg:

Invited.

Sidenote: Joachim, perh to the Simons, in case action needs to be taken while you're unavailable.

good idea, done

Thanks for steering this process, Alejandro!

Agreed! Cheers, Joachim -- Joachim Breitner mail@joachim-breitner.de http://www.joachim-breitner.de/

Hello! Thank you everyone for the warm welcome. I will now go through the proposals under consideration and see if I can add something to the discussion. - Vlad

Welcome, Vlad! I’m very happy to have you among us :)

Right now we are discussing a few proposals, feel free to jump into the discussion (the archives should give you a rough idea). In particular, we are debating lately about dependent types and the general meaning of “extension”, which are topics which I think would benefit from a fresh pair of eyes.

Regards, Alejandro

Vlad is already on this list (according to the list of subscribers). He will need GitHub permissions, but it looks like Joachim is the one with the right permissions to do that.

Sidenote: Joachim, perhaps you should also grant maintainer access to the ghc-proposals team (https://github.com/orgs/ghc-proposals/teams/ghc-steering-committee/members) to the Simons, in case action needs to be taken while you're unavailable.

Thanks for steering this process, Alejandro!

Dear Committee,

It’s my pleasure that announce that the three members with an expired term (Joachim, Iavor, and Richard) have renewed their membership. In addition, we have a new member in the Committee: Vladislav Zavialov. We found all four applications to be really strong!

Could anybody help me adding Vladislav to the mailing list and giving him the proper permissions? That way I could give him a proper welcome to the Committee :)

Hi Committee, glad you all still like me (or at least a majority).

Welcome back! Are you willing to continue to act as our secretary? You do it so well, and I was worrying a bit about what we’d do if you stepped down 😊.

Yes, I’m happy to carry on as usual. Cheers, Joachim -- Joachim Breitner mail@joachim-breitner.de http://www.joachim-breitner.de/
