Sadly, OverloadedRecordFields won't be making it into 7.10.

  That's a shame, do we know why? is it just not finished being implemented? I found a page[0] that said at some point they had stalled on refactoring something.

    There's some info here: http://www.reddit.com/r/haskell/comments/2pnjdk/is_overloadedrecordfields_getting_it_into_7101/ http://www.reddit.com/r/haskell/comments/2pnjdk/is_overloade.... tl;dr: The patch worked but was messy/overly complex, so it needs refactoring before it's merged.

      That's a shame and the first I've heard of the delay. For me and the software that I write, this is a must have feature and I was very much looking forward to its release.
