Re: [julia-users] Roadmap for 0.4?

2015-05-21 Thread Michael Turok
Going back to this thread:   do we have a roadmap for 0.4 somewhere?   I 
see the milestone issues, but not a formal roadmap specification as 
described below.

Thanks!
Michael

- array views
- string + I/O revamp
- pkg revamp (again)
- static compilation
- multithreading
- built-in debugger

 That is a pretty significant set of features. As always, there's a chance 
 that not all of these will make it into 0.4, but I'm fairly confident about 
 most of these.

Might we see the changes to the type system that are required to get 
higher-order functions to specialize on input functions?

You can also take a look at specific github issues that have been marked
0.4: https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/milestones/0.4

It may take another trip to Boston, but I'm also pulling for the Dates
module in 0.4!

Seems like triangular dispatch may be on its way, too, which would be really 
cool.

0.4: everything you want, plus the pony

I would hope/work for an improved help/documentation system, including
user-defined documentation.

I believe this is one of the things that Jeff wants to do, but obviously
he's the definitive word on what he wants to do :-)

Yes, that's also important and we definitely need to make big progress
there.
