I have a better idea. Let's decide to do nothing. The benefits of this approach are: 1) it takes zero effort to implement, 2) the number of people who immediately give up on Haskell from reading that is, I suspect, neglible (actually I suspect it is zero; I think the number of people who actually read that at all is probably negligible), and 3) it accomplishes the same end as debating endlessly while creating much less list traffic.
Should we set up a haskell-marketing mailing list for people who still have some passion (or merely stamina) for the discussion? Or is there a lighter-weight way to take the discussion off-list/to another list?
