Hello,

This is my first library patch. It's probably a bit silly to follow the full process on such a simple patch, but it does give me a chance to practice the policy.

http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/3939

Should there be a timescale field on the ticket for following this step of the process? Did I overlook it? "Tracking. Add a Trac ticket of type proposal for the appropriate library component, with a timescale for consideration (to focus the community's attention for a limited period), adding the patch file as an attachment."

For the lazy, here's an excerpt from the ticket:

...

libraries/base/GHC/IO/Handle/Text.hs has an obsolete ToDo item which can be confusing. It should be removed.

Sounds good.

It looks like Simon beat me to the punch. So this proposal can be deleted actually. Sorry for the noise. Jason
