That's OK---it is fun to be the shepherd for proposals that I am enthusiastic about, and I think that both of these are a good idea and, as you say, they are somewhat related.

Dear Committee,

this is your secretary speaking:

Type applications in patterns, by myself and with help from Richard and
Simon PJ, was proposed
https://github.com/ghc-proposals/ghc-proposals/pull/126

I again propose Iavor as the shepherd. He already has #128 on his
plate, and although orthogonal, both touch the same area, both are
motivated and explained in more detail in the same paper, so maybe
looking at both together is insightful. Iavor, please speak up if you
find this is too much and would rather have this assigned to someone
else.

Iavor, please reach consensus as described in
https://github.com/ghc-proposals/ghc-proposals#committee-process
I suggest you make a recommendation, in a new e-mail thread with the
proposal number in the subject, about the decision, maybe point out
debatable points, and assume that anyone who stays quiet agrees with
you.

Thanks,
Joachim
