To put it blunt, libraries mail list has a reputation of a place, where things are never got done. Using it for any meaningful discussion is an obsolete practice and is actually less inclusive than relevant issue trackers. I suggest we use libraries mail list to announce (controversial) proposals, but rely on other, more suitable media to discuss them. Best regards, Andrew

For example
- https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/issues/20044 ByteArray migration from primitive to base - https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/issues/20027 Changing Show String behavior
Why they are discussed "in private", I thought libraries@ list is where such changes should be discussed.
