Good job.
For your information Entware-ng (including +1900 packages) include :
zsh 5.1.1
vim 7.4.3
and coreutils (but at separate commands) 8.23.2
Thanks. And I'm aware of Entware-ng, it's just that I prefer having the packages separate, allows for better integration with ADM in my opinion. For example with coreutils I've linked all the commands prefixed with "g", e.g. gls (ls) in the global PATH (/usr/local/bin) so that they can easily be used without conflicting with system binaries, and I've introduced an additional folder that can be manually included in the PATH which includes the commands without the "g"-prefix (best of both worlds).
The versions I've made available are: coreutils-8.25, vim-7.4.1821, zsh-5.2. So slightly newer. Of course Entware-ng has the added benefit of automatic updates benefitting from others work, whereas these are dependent on me updating them (which I intend to). Although, my experience with Entware-like repositories is that they usually lag behind on software which is a total bummer.
