Relatedly, theres a major version bump release of primitive that's due to be cut soon, and in a month or two vector 0.11 will be ready for release one way or another.
Is "soon" measured in hours? If not - I suggest that it misses.
I'm pushing that we change how we do this Platform thing - and make it stick, like glue, to the GHC release schedule. Sure, this time 'round we'll be out of sync with those "it's almost there" packages... but next time we'll know it's coming and hopefully, we'll have these panic attacks as GHC is in beta not post-Release.
