Hi all,

The Haskell.org committee would like to adopt a new proposal format, inspired by the GHC Steering Committee. We have created a repository with proposals here:

https://github.com/haskell-org/committee

I would like to call the members of the committee to vote on these proposals, but we also value community feedback. The two proposals are:

- 0001: Establish the proposal process https://github.com/haskell-org/committee/pull/1 - 0002: Adopt the GRC code of conduct https://github.com/haskell-org/committee/pull/2

For posterity and archival, I am including the full text of the proposals here. For the record, I am in favor of accepting both proposals.

# Proposal 0001: Haskell.org proposals

In an effort to make the work of Haskell.org committee more transparent, we would like to adopt a proposal process similar to the [GHC Steering Committee].

The proposed process is fairly light:

1. New proposals are created as pull requests with a single file, following a `proposals/XYZW-some-title.extention` naming scheme. A template is available in `proposals/0000-template.md`.

2. Proposals must have an author set who is responsible for driving the discussion. If the author is not a member of the Haskell.org committee, we may additionally appoint a shepherd from the committee to help with this. It is the responsibility of the author and the shepherd to notify any communities that may be interested in the proposal, so we can gather community feedback.

3. The proposal must have a link to the PR discussion, so readers can easily find the full discussion once the PR is merged.

4. We strive to make unanimous decisions, but we can use a majority vote (the committee has an odd number of members) to move forward.

5. What happens next depends on whether or not the proposal is accepted:

- If the proposal is accepted, `date-accepted` is set and the proposal is merged into the repository. A summary with a link to the full PR discussion is sent out to `community@haskell.org`.

- If the proposal is not accepted, the proposal is also merged for posterity, but a section is ammended to explain why it was rejected.

# Proposal 0002: Guidelines for Respectful Communication

The Haskell.org committee adopts the [Guidelines for Respectful Communication][grc].

This applies only to members of the board, in in all our public interactions in the Haskell sphere, including email, social media, discussion forums, and so on.

We may later adopt a stricter Code of Conduct, or set a Code of Conduct for platforms we manage (e.g. Discourse, mailing lists), but that is out of scope for this proposal.

I'm voting: Proposal 0001: Yes Proposal 0002: No The latter is due to the feelings I have regarding CoC's with no punitive language being relatively useless. However, I've discussed that before, and I'm fine with putting it off until a later date when we discuss something that actually has an impact on our behavior.
