Hello,

I would say that this is a too complex of a change to discuss for Haskell Prime without implementation or prior experience. If you are interested in something like this, you may want to start a discussion of the design on one of the other lists, or perhaps write up a proposal for GHC.

The proposals currently under discussion are on the `github` URL.

Cheers,

-Iavor

Hi Everyone,

I was going through https://prime.haskell.org/wiki/Process#Proposals and noticed the following:

Is this a hard requirement? I would like to see the ability to pass named arguments to functions somehow (most probably through anonymous records). I'm unaware of any existing language extension that solves this problem. Does this render the discussion out-of-bounds from a Haskell Prime perspective? Has this already been proposed and considered?

Also, going by what is given on the Wiki, I'm confused about where to check the current status of proposals that are being considered. Which is the primary link:

* https://prime.haskell.org/query?status=new&status=assigned&status=reopened&group=state
* Or, https://github.com/haskell/rfcs
