Changes (by simons):

  * summary:  forkChild, waitForChild, parIO, and timeout => timeout
  * type:  proposal => task

Comment:

 There was no interest in parIO or any of the other primitives.

 Over the course of the discussion, a very nice timeout implementation
 emerged in http://www.haskell.org/pipermail/libraries/2006-
 November/006238.html, but no-one found the time to prepare it for
 submission to the libraries.
