text-2.0 with UTF8 is finally released!
I’m happy to announce that text-2.0 with UTF-8 underlying representation has been finally released: https://hackage.haskell.org/package/text-2.0. The release is identical to rc2, circulated earlier. Changelog: https://hackage.haskell.org/package/text-2.0/changelog Please give it a try. Here is a cabal.project template: https://gist.github.com/Bodigrim/9834568f075be36a1c65e7aaba6a15db This work would not be complete without a blazingly-fast UTF-8 validator, submitted by Koz Ross into bytestring-0.11.2.0, whose contributions were sourced via HF as an in-kind donation from MLabs. I would like to thank Emily Pillmore for encouraging me to take on this project, helping with the proposal and permissions. I’m grateful to my fellow text maintainers, who’ve been carefully reviewing my work in course of the last six months, as well as helpful and responsive maintainers of downstream packages and GHC developers. Thanks all, it was a pleasant journey! Best regards, Andrew
