Hello all! The latest bugfix releases of both 0.4.x and 0.3.x Julia lines have been released. Binaries are available from the usual place <http://julialang.org/downloads/> (see Old releases <http://julialang.org/downloads/oldreleases.html> for 0.3.12), and as is typical with such things, please report all issues to either the issue tracker <https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/issues>, or email the julia-users list. (If you respond to this message on julia-users, please do not cc julia-news which is intended to be low-volume.)
These are bugfix releases. 0.3.12 is likely to be the last release in the 0.3.x line unless any critical bugs or regressions are identified. To see the list of bugs fixed since 0.3.11, see this commit log <https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/compare/v0.3.11...v0.3.12>. Bugfix backports to the 0.4.x line will be continuing with a target of one point release per month. See this commit log <https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/compare/v0.4.0...v0.4.1> for the list of bugs fixed between 0.4.0 and 0.4.1. If you are a package author and want to rely on functionality that did not work in 0.4.0 but does work in 0.4.1 in your package, please be sure to change the minimum julia version in your REQUIRE file to 0.4.1 accordingly. If you're not sure about this, you can test your package specifically against 0.4.0 on Travis and/or locally. These are recommended upgrades for anyone using previous releases, and should act as drop-in replacements for their respective minor-version predecessors. If 0.3.12 introduces any regressions relative to any previous 0.3.x release, or if 0.4.1 introduces any regressions relative to 0.4.0, please let us know. -Tony
