Hello, personally I would be more likely to read/participate in the discussions if such discussions were hosted here or on Trac rather than Github. haskell-prime@ is just one 'subscribe' away, comes in a familiar package to haskell-cafe@ participants (a mailing list) and interface (their mail client); I cannot say the same about Github. Similarly, Trac allows me to follow new issues (new tickets notifications or the life of a single ticket in particular) via rss, without having to register to a new service. Of course: 1. this is just my experience -- there are many haskell developers on Github and they probably like the workflow there (I would still say the haskell-cafe@ audience is bigger though). 2. I am not a committee member. In the end it's them who are going to pour blood/sweat/tears in the report; whichever tool the committee chooses is the right one
