Ordered-containers -> could we bump the containers dependency

1

ordered-containers is a package on hackage and it has a dependency on containers which is currently limited to < 0.8.
There is a PR in the repo telling that it works with containers 0.8 and hence we could bump it to < 0.9

But there has been no response there for months now.
So hence requesting here, that if it’s possible for folks here to bump it up. That would be great.

Also if you guys could tell me where to reach out for such trivial requests other than a post on this forum.

Thanks,

Kushagra
