 The GHC team is pleased to announce the availability of GHC 8.4.4

 Thank you

 As always, the full release notes can be found in the users guide,

 https://downloads.haskell.org/~ghc/8.4.4/docs/html/users_guide/8.4.4-notes.html#base-library

 I think this base text is out of date, and could be dropped, right?

Indeed it is.

 I see that stm was also bumped: though it is not listed in
 https://downloads.haskell.org/~ghc/8.4.4/docs/html/users_guide/8.4.4-notes.html#included-libraries

Also true. However, in my mind this isn't nearly as significant as the
`text` bump, which affects many users and fixes extremely bad
misbehavior.

Thanks for noticing these!

Cheers
