Hello all,<br>
<br>
The GHC 8.0 release cycle is quickly approaching its conclusion. While<br>
there are a few patches still outstanding (most notably the no-kinds<br>
branch to which we owe the major version number bump), most everything<br>
else has at this point been merged.<br>
<br>
If you are still sitting on a patch then please post it for review as<br>
soon as possible. We will enter a formal feature freeze within the next<br>
week. If things go according to plan we will have be able to fork the<br>
8.0 branch shortly thereafter and have a release candidate within two<br>
weeks.<br>
<br>
Thanks to everyone who has contributed to this release!<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
<br>
- Ben<br>
