Thank you for your kind explanation. I understood that accountability of a proposal (github PR) is very important. If it doesn't exist, the github proposal repo may become a collection of "throw-out" PRs. It's reasonable for me that only committee members can create PRs.
In my understanding from your explanation, the proposal process is the following: (1) pre-discussion about a particular proposal [everyone] * privately talk with committee members, or, * talk on the haskell-prime mailing list (2) creating the new proposal on github [only committee members] * PR by a committee member (3) open discussion on github [everyone] * conservation on the PR For me, (1) is now clear. If it's written somewhere, it's easy for non-committee members to understand the total proposal process:) Thank you for committee's great work, Takenobu 2016-10-06 6:50 GMT+09:00 Carter Schonwald <carter.schonw...@gmail.com>: > I guess the question is what is the definition of issue in that context? > > Whatever the specifics, I think if you either > > a) privately talk with a memeber of the committee about what you intend to > do and they are willing to "co own" / "sponsor it", and this is indicated > in the pr summary or the like > B) ask on the list about a particular proposal / pr you wish to write up > and at least 2-3 committee members explicitly respond with supportive noise > like "sure"/ "go for it" etc, then linking that thread as part of the > description of the PR counts as support by those committee members for > that pr > > (Mind you I'm making up this approach / rubric) > > The intent I think of the current language in the repo is that drowning in > proposals would not be a good state of affairs, and that likewise members > of can hold each other accountable. > > Anyways: what do you have in mind? :) > > > On Wednesday, October 5, 2016, Takenobu Tani <takenobu...@gmail.com> > wrote: > >> Dear Iavor, >> >> Members of non prime-commitiee could send pull-request? >> >> >> README.rst [1] is written as follows: >> >> > While the process is open for everyone to participate, contributing >> entirely new issues is currently limited to the members of the Core >> Language Committee. >> >> >> [1]: https://github.com/haskell/rfcs >> >> Regards, >> Takenobu >> >> >> 2016-10-04 8:27 GMT+09:00 Iavor Diatchki <iavor.diatc...@gmail.com>: >> >>> Hello, >>> >>> During our Haskell Prime lunch meeting at ICFP, I promised to create a >>> detailed step-by-step guide for creating Haskell Prime proposals on >>> GitHub.
