We don’t (please!) need another list for announcements. Perhaps there is scope for a discussion about how “related” a conference announcement should be for it to be announced here. And perhaps there is scope for a discussion about the name: maybe this list should be renamed haskell-announce, for expectation management? But if so, those discussions should presumably happen on haskell-cafe, not here. Jeremy > On 4 May 2023, at 10:33, James Flanagan <j....@outlook.com> wrote: > > Thank you for this tip.
