I tried submitting a proposal for "A library (or "embedded language") for interactive animations with 2D and 3D graphics and sound to replace Fran" an hour ago, but it hasn't appeared, while a later proposal has appeared. Do I need to have somebody add me to the list of contributors to participate? -- Benjamin L. Russell -- Benjamin L.

This has happened to some of my proposals, too.
The reddit is completely open.
That is strange. I just deleted my proposal and resubmitted it, but it still didn't appear. Then I clicked on the up-arrow next to "An ARM port of GHC that works (so we can program the iphone or android) (self.haskell_proposals)", and the number below that arrow increased from 18 to 19, so I tried resetting it by clicking the down-arrow, and the number then decreased back to 17, so I clicked the up-arrow again, and the number increased to 19 again. Is there any way to delete my vote? I submitted it by mistake to see if the REDDIT site was working for me, but even if I log off and back on again, the figure and up-arrow both still display in orange. Since I can't submit my proposal with REDDIT, I'll just have to give up there. -- Benjamin L. Russel -- Benjamin L.

Hi Clicking up once makes you vote up, clicking up again cancels your up vote. i.e. to cancel an upvote, click up again. Similarly clicking down votes down, clicking again removes your down vote. So therefore clicking up, then down, is (+1) then (-2). Thanks Neil

Indeed! That worked. Thank you! Now to find a way to get REDDIT to post my contributions somehow. Strangely, it lists them separately in my profile, but not in the thread. I don't know how to resolve this. Logging off and back on doesn't help; deleting the original post and reposting it doesn't help, either. Perhaps REDDIT doesn't let users living in a foreign country post? To contribute, the correct procedure is to visit http://www.reddit.com/r/haskell_proposals/, then click on the "Submit a link" sidebar link on the right, and then to fill in the form that appears. Is this correct? -- Benjamin L. Russell -- Benjamin L.

This time, my earlier contribution, which I had already deleted and reposted, appeared with one plus vote, but without my username. Apparently, contributions sometimes appear after a long (about an hour) wait; sometimes they don't (the first time, it didn't appear after even two hours). Since I wanted my username to appear below my contribution, I re-deleted the contribution (including the plus vote along with it), and then reposted it (of course, without the vote). However, now it doesn't appear again. I just hope that whoever voted for my contribution resubmits the vote. -- Benjamin L. Russell -- Benjamin L.
