New version vector 0.14?

[Vekhir]

Hi,
please release a new version of vector on Hackage. In particular, I'm affected by issue #460 which is already fixed in main, but the fix is not trivial to port to the 0.13 version available via Hackage. There have been a lot of changes in the past year :)

The improved version bounds for primitive and doctest also don't hurt. A new release would allow the Arch repos to move to more recent versions of the Haskell packages.

Thanks,
-- Vekhir

There's weren't any changes that warrant even minor bump. But perhaps it good time to make a patch release. QC compatibility is important for downstream. @lehins @Bodigrim, your opinion?

[Bodigrim]

If someone has bandwidth, it would be nice to have a release compatible with GHC HEAD, which requires efcb475.

I'd suggest to do a minor version bump. Patch releases are for packaging fixes only.

Since 0.13 master contains

• Bump upper bounds of base and ghc-prim for GHC 9.4 #445 version bump
• Improve UnboxViaPrim docs #450 documentation improvement
• Support GHC 9.6 #451 version bumps & CI
• Allow primitive-0.8 #454 version bump
• Make Size fields strict #456 Makes Size fields strict
• Fix instance TestData Float/Double #461 Fix for test suite breakage with new QC
• Optimize replicateM and update CI #465 Future proofing import list against foldl'
• Allow deepseq-1.5 #463, Allow GHC 9.8 #464 again version bumps
• Optimize replicateM and update CI #465 slight optimization for generateM, test suite refactoring, doctest fixes and CI work
• Add documentation for New #466 documentation changes

We can make release straight from master. #456 warrants minor bump. But everything else is version bumps, haddock and test suite. If there's no objections I'll prepare PR with version bump and changelog

@Shimuuar That would be awesome!

[Vekhir]

Yeah, the version in the title was a rather ad-hoc suggestion. Really any version bump is fine

[Bodigrim]

@Shimuuar could you possibly release vector-stream as well? GHC to-be-9.10 requires efcb475.

[Shimuuar]

@Bodigrim I've made #474. Do version bounds on base should be bumped as well?

Not yet, I’d rather do it later, once base is finalized.

[Shimuuar]

@Bodigrim I don't have upload rights for vector-stream. It seems only @lehins can upload ATM

[lehins]

@Shimuuar and @Bodigrim I've added both of you as maintainers to vector-stream

[Shimuuar]

Thank you! vector-stream-0.1.0.1 is on hackage. Well I'm closing this issue
