This plan looks perfect. > Sven, perhaps you would like to pick up this task? > Alas, I don't have many spare development cycles at the moment, especially given the relatively tight timeline for 8.0.1. I have just enough time to grumble about some GHC details on this list. ;-) More seriously, after Herbert's option survey my proposal is quite short: * Use "sigs" or "signatures" consistently (doesn't really matter which one) * Use "pattern-synonyms", not "pat-syn"
