Anton (Jan 10 2025 at 16:20): Anton (Jan 10 2025 at 16:20):I regularly search for the google docs links for proposals, should we keep a proposals.md file in the repo with these links?
Sam Mohr (Jan 10 2025 at 16:24):That sounds good for everything that we want to make public
Sam Mohr (Jan 10 2025 at 16:25):A non-public mechanism is to keep a public to Zulip, but not internet-visible channel here that we post only proposal links to
Sam Mohr (Jan 10 2025 at 16:25):And we delete every other message
Richard Feldman (Jan 10 2025 at 17:33):maybe in some other repo than roc-lang/roc
Richard Feldman (Jan 10 2025 at 17:34):just because it feels like it would kinda pollute code search results
Luke Boswell (Jan 10 2025 at 18:53):I started doing it in roc-awesome but the issue was the proposals are often superseded by lots of discussion and then not updated. I would recommend pointing to a zulip thread with the proposal and discussion.
Anton (Jan 10 2025 at 18:54):Yeah, each entry could be proposal topic, docs link and related zulip discussion(s)
Luke Boswell (Jan 10 2025 at 18:54):I would be happy to host it there again, though I think I'd prefer it in a PROPOSALS.md instead of Readme
Anton (Jan 10 2025 at 18:55):roc-awesome does not seem like the place that people would expect that information to be
Luke Boswell (Jan 10 2025 at 19:01):What I like about roc-awesome is that it's not official so people probably dont expect it to be 100% accurate all the time.
Anton (Jan 10 2025 at 19:04):I think we would benefit from an accurate (complete and up to date) list of proposals
Luke Boswell (Jan 10 2025 at 19:06):I agree, though I ditched it because it was getting hard to keep up to date. Even just the status of proposal was challenging.
Anton (Jan 10 2025 at 19:14):Uhu, understandable, it may be possible if we all help out
Anthony Bullard (Jan 10 2025 at 21:08):I really like the idea of a roc-proposals repo
Anthony Bullard (Jan 10 2025 at 21:08):Especially if it got us to write proposals in .md :-P
Luke Boswell (Jan 10 2025 at 21:39):We have an rfcs repo, maybe in there?
Luke Boswell (Jan 10 2025 at 21:44):https://github.com/roc-lang/rfcs
Anthony Bullard (Jan 10 2025 at 21:56):Why, why did we get away from that?
Sam Mohr (Jan 10 2025 at 21:57):Because it's effort, and harder to back and forth with than Zulip
Anthony Bullard (Jan 10 2025 at 21:57):I mean for the formal proposals
Anthony Bullard (Jan 10 2025 at 21:57):I get throwing ideas out there in Zulip
Sam Mohr (Jan 10 2025 at 22:00):I don't think we ever really started besides Ayaz, but I'd be down to push for proposals to go there?
