Hi
I agree. Unless... do some people subscribe to haskell@ (not haskell-cafe@) and like the existing stuff that's sent there (not all announcements... I'm not sure if I'd call e.g. Oleg's occasional demonstrations "announcements" even)?
There are four things sent to the haskell list@ 1) Calls for papers 2) Annoucements 3) Oleg's stuff (which are really announcements of a library or technique) 4) Off topic stuff I'm initially only proposing to mop up category 4, which I am pretty sure the haskell@ people don't want to see. I did wonder whether this discussion should take place on the haskell@ list or the haskell-cafe@ one - the great ambiguity of the lists.
(more, but can be done step by step in the future)
Maybe, but I'm doubtful... (it might seem different to me in a year though, i.e. some amount of time after a -->haskell-announce@ change has been made.)
This proposal has nothing to do with any future steps. They may happen, they may not, but I think this proposal is worthwhile on its own. Thanks Neil
