We should have a major libraries revision soon and redesign everything. I'm thinking we start it sometime in the next few months, aiming to get it into a GHC release in late 2012. We'll continue to support Haskell2010 (and Haskell2012 if appropriate), but to what extent those will be compatible with the new libraries depends on what changes we make.

Cheers, Simon

Are GHC central going to take the lead in this? A major overhaul isn't going to happen without someone who can drive the process through to completion.
