I'm pleased to announce the first release of lens-family-core and 
lens-family.

This package provide first class(†) functional references. In addition to 
the usual operations of getting, setting and composition, plus integration 
with the state monad, lens families provide some unique features:

* Polymorphic updating
* Cast projection functions to read-only lenses
* Cast semantic editor combinators to modify-only lenses

(†) For optimal first-class support use the lens-family package with rank 
2 / rank N polymorphism. Lens.Family.Clone allows for first-class support 
of lenses for those who require Haskell 98.
