This crate has become a pretty foundational part of a few Rust ecosystems:

• Embedded (via heapless and other fixed-sized containers)
• RustCrypto (where we just completed a generic-array v0.14 upgrade)

Unfortunately, if you now use both heapless and RustCrypto in conjunction (via RustCrypto's aead::heapless for example) it pulls in generic-array v0.12, v0.13, and v0.14! (this is due to the as-slice crate, which pulls in both v0.12 and v0.13 for whatever reason)

In addition to eliminating confusion around coordinating generic-array upgrades, a 1.0 release of generic-array is one of the main blockers for a 1.0 release of many of the RustCrypto crates, so it'd be fantastic if that were to happen.

Any thoughts on a 1.0 release?
