> I have this idea that _the community_ has to pick the direction where Elixir is going next, but everyone in a community wants different things. Some want types, some want more Nerves, others want more processes and others something more Haskell like.

That’s exactly right, the community is responsible for where the Elixir **ecosystem** is going. And if some prefer to make it more like Haskell and others to focus on Nerves. That’s totally fine.

What we refer as “done” (stable is a better word) is the **Elixir language**. We are not handing the codebase of the Elixir language to someone else. The goal is exactly to not change the language/core/foundation.
