I made some changes to the update part, is it better now or am I still missing something? > And the stretch goals are somewhat short :) Ya I am aware of this and am waiting for some good idea to put in there. Should I add PortGroup for NPM as stretch goal? > The only thing (mentioned yesterday) is that you either try to support > Haskell, or you don't even try.

I have changed the timeline for Haskell now and the basic structure of it starts at week3. Should I add the PR links somewhere in the proposal ?
