Hi Geertjan, OK, no problem. Thanks for the guidance on that.
A second question then: 1) Is there much point in supporting new languages using the 'old' method of writing nb modules, or is the best approach for the future to focus on LSP integration? 2) Where is the LSP which was used for the Kotlin example published to Twitter. Was that a NB effort? Is the idea that NB would simply use existing language servers from around the community (and support the client side - i found the LSP client code in the repo already)? 3) Is the approach that NB would bundle LSP servers or these would be installed by the user at runtime? Or is this still to be decided? Thanks a lot in advance, Regards Jonathan On Thu, Jul 18, 2019 at 2:02 PM Geertjan Wielenga <geert...@apache.org> wrote: > I wouldn't count on this happening soon, nor worry too much about it.
