I saw: A message from Carter about lunch queues. A new topic from Carter with a 5-word Subject line, not saying it was a proposal; saying something about some committee approving something; with a smiley; several more messages with smileys (a couple from you). That doesn't seem to follow the process in the link you sent. Nothing saying this is a proposal. Nothing explaining or motivating. Now you're referring me back to a 2011 version of some proposal. It's hardly providing context. To repeat: think about all the Haskellers reading this list. So for anybody not at ICFP (I'm not) what's going on? Are you just a bunch of clowns joking around? It doesn't seem to be April 1st. This from you is relevant: > ## Haskell Core Library Committee > > ...

Whether or not everything under the FTP were sensible changes (I think not), the actual communication of what was to change was lousy, and the consultation/decision process was rushed at the end. There are still people grumbling about it. You seem at risk of repeating that.
