Comment (by chak):

 Replying to [comment:3 guest]:
 > Also interested in this. Will the implementation allow varying non-
 instance types?

 What do you mean by "varying non-instance type"?  Whether you write
 {{{
 data family Blah x y :: *
 }}}
 or
 {{{
 data family Blah x :: * -> *
 }}}
 makes no difference whatsoever for data families.
