+# Extensions 2023-06-07
+
+## Reviewing the "invocation expression", "member access" and "extension invocation" sections
+
+We reviewed the proposals in PR https://github.com/dotnet/csharplang/pull/7179 and discussed some open issues.  
+
+### Invoking members from extended type
+
+The first issue is that we want to access members from the extended type on a type or value of an extension type.
+
+```csharp
+extension E for C
+{
+  void M()
+  {
+    this.MethodFromUnderlying(); // problem
+    MethodFromUnderlying(); // problem
+  }
+}
+```
+
+The current proposal had a bullet in "member access" 
+which would make member access scenarios work for non-invocations, 
+but that left invocations and simple name scenarios unsupported.
+
+Decision: we want those scenarios to work and we can achieve that 
+by modifying "member lookup" to also find members from the underlying type.
+The "member lookup" section already handles lookups 
+
+### Pattern-based method binding
+
+The second issue is that the proposed rules raise a question about how pattern-based invocations,
+such as the one involved in deconstruction.
+
+For instance, should the following work?
+
+```csharp
+implicit extension E for C
+{
+   public dynamic Deconstruct { get { ... } } 
+}
+
+class C
+{
+   void M()
+   {
+     (int i, int j) = this;
+   }
+}
+```
+
+Decision: If the scenario allowed instance properties today, then extension properties should work, if not, then not.
+So, given that an instance `Deconstruct` property would not participate in deconstruction today,
+we don't want an extension `Deconstruct` property to participate either.
+
+Any scenario that allowed extension methods should allow methods from extension types to participate.  
+This means we'll need to review all pattern-based sections of the spec to come up with some language
+to only bind to methods in the extension type case. Maybe something like "Do a member access and if that resolves to a method, then ..."
+or "if the expression ... resolves at compile-time to a unique instance or extension method or extension type method, that expression is evaluated".  
+
+Also, we'll need to make decisions for
+non-invocation members, such as the `Current` property involved in a `foreach`, as those were not previously
+covered by extension methods.
+
+## Forward compatible emit strategy for interface support 
+
+We briefly reviewed an alternative to the `ref struct` approach that is currently proposed.  
+We will need to experiment and flesh out a proposal.
