Dear Committee,
With their proposal, Teo wants to reduce the maintenance cost for packages
(such as `containers`) that depend on `template-haskell` only for
comparatively stable APIs (`Lift`, quasiquoting), by carving out separate
packages for these stable APIs.
These so-called "type (A) clients" constitute a considerable share of all
clients of `template-haskell`. It is a well-written proposal outlining a
simple solution with a great cost/benefit ratio.
I recommend we accept it.
Cheers,
Sebastian

Dear Committee,
Teo Camarasu proposes to split out smaller, more coherent packages with more stable interfaces from the template-haskell package:
https://github.com/ghc-proposals/ghc-proposals/pull/696
https://github.com/TeofilC/ghc-proposals/blob/wip/th-lift-and-quasiquote/pro...
I'd like to nominate Sebastian as the shepherd.
Please guide us to a conclusion as outlined in https://github.com/ghc-proposals/ghc-proposals#committee-process
Cheers,
Adam
