Thanks. I don't have strong opinions about any of this. But I would love to have an actual specification of what is proposed. The wiki page starts with "Proposal" but lists a set of alternatives. Later "Concrete proposal" discusses only file suffixes, and has lots of discussion of alternatives. Would it be possible to have a section a) describing a single alternative, as precisely as possible. b) saying what the effect or meaning of proposal is For (a), is Foo.hs still ok? Foo.lhs? What if both exist and/or Foo.md.hs or whatever? For (b) what does a suffix of Foo.hs.md mean? Presumably there is some markdown in there. But how is it delimited? Is md the only one proposed or are there others? Is it meant to be extensible or is there a fixed set? In short, a *specification* of what is proposed. I think that would be helpful for people who come to this without having participated in the discussion that led up to it.
