I have tried to summarize the current thinking into a proposal on the wiki.
http://haskell.galois.com/cgi-bin/haskell-prime/trac.cgi/wiki/Concurrency I split it into 3 parts. the standard - all haskell' compilers must implement optional preemption - ability to preempt pure code, fairness guarentees, interleaved evaluation operators (merge, nmerge) optional OS threads - bound threads, SMP, reentrant concurrent FFI calls supported. comment or modify it at will.
