I can be the shepherd, but, full disclosure: Shea is my colleague at Tweag.

Thanks for flagging this up. We should properly articulate this in the by-laws, but as per the precedent set by my esteemed predecessor (https://mail.haskell.org/pipermail/ghc-steering-committee/2022-November/0029...), I don't think it is necessarily a problem to shepherd proposals from colleagues, provided you feel you can do so objectively.

Dear Committee,

Shea Levy proposes that the value returned by `main` should determine the exit code of the program:

https://github.com/shlevy/ghc-proposals/blob/io-exitcode/proposals/0631-main... https://github.com/shlevy/ghc-proposals/blob/io-exitcode/proposals/0631-main...

I'd like to nominate Arnaud as the shepherd.

Please guide us to a conclusion as outlined in https://github.com/ghc-proposals/ghc-proposals#committee-process https://github.com/ghc-proposals/ghc-proposals#committee-process

Cheers,
