#13757: Are you for or against writing "otherwise" as a keyword? -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: vanto | Owner: (none) Type: feature request | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 8.0.2 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Type of failure: Poor/confusing | Unknown/Multiple error message | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | Differential Rev(s): Wiki Page: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by nomeata): I am also in the committee, and I agree with what Richard is saying. There is a process, and the situation has not changed. I may not be more senior than Richard, but I speak with the authority of being the Committee Secretary. Also, judging from previous decisions of the committee, I can already tell you that it has a pretty slim chance of success. Often, online communication is not very helpful when you want to get your idea out, and people will not understand your point. Is there maybe a local Haskell meetup in your area where you could bring your idea forward, to gauge and gather support, and get immediate feedback? -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/13757#comment:5 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
