Proposal: Include InstanceSigs
Hi, looking at Haskell prime’s trac, I noticed that there is no formal proposal to include InstaceSigs¹ in the next language revision. As a teacher who uses live coding in a text editor, I usually write out all type signatures. Not being able to do that for instance methods is a minor annoyance. So I guess by sending this mail I started the proposal process properly?

Hi Joachim, great to see you tune in! We’re currently trying out a Github-based process. If you want, you could write up a proposal here [1], or at least make a reminder post-it-ticket here [2] so maybe someone else does. :-) Greetings, David [1]: https://github.com/haskell/rfcs [2]: https://github.com/haskell/rfcs/projects/1 -- My GPG keys: https://keybase.io/quchen

done: https://github.com/haskell/rfcs/pull/13 I did not copy the detailed description from the GHC manual to the proposal yet. Is it ok to defer that until the proposal has been approved, or at least until approval is known to be likely?

I see no point in copying the detailed description verbatim. You can just link to it, unless you intend to change something therein.
