network-uri-2.7.0.0 has no breaking changes versus 2.6.2.0 #47

Closed jkachmar closed 4 years ago

jkachmar commented 4 years ago

As noted by in this comment on commercialhaskell/stackage#5116, network-uri-2.7.0.0 was released even though it is strictly additive (ref. this changelog entry.

This is causing quite a bit of churn for packages that have overly-restrictive upper bounds on network-uri (this is magnified versus other libraries since overly-restrictive upper bounds are relatively common thanks to the PVP, and since network-uri is quite a central library within the Haskell ecosystem).

Is there a reason why these changes necessitated a major version bump?

Closed in favor of #48, which has a clear plan of action on how to mitigate this issue.
