Great! :) Thank you for your help!
I've updated the maintainers page in order to list you as the current
maintainer of the pattern matcher, with a link to a contact page that
people can use to contact you.
If you need any assistance with your new role as maintainer of the pattern
matcher, or with the related code, please just let us know and we'll try
our best to assist.
Thanks!
