I think this is a too strong statement. There are definitely happening a
lot on the master (0.4-dev) branch, but it should be quite usable even
without reading the majority of Github issues. The more users we have, the
earlier concerns is raised, and the earlier we can fix them and prepare for

My point was that `release-0.3` does not (intentionally) break backwards
compatibility, and if it breaks anything it would be really great to get a
bug report before we tag a new 0.3.X release. The more testers/users we

Master should be usable, but many packages won't be. Given the limited
bandwidth of package maintainers, and the scope of pending changes,
supporting both 0.3 and 0.4-dev is probably not realistic for many
packages.

more a request than a question. NEWS.md is a great resource we try to keep
updated when we make significant changes to Julia. Unfortunately it's easy

The tone of your e-mail is a little odd in my opinion. It seems to imply
distrust and even possibly anger for a project that would be substantially
better served by participating actively in the issue discussions that Tim Holy

Hans, like John said in the OP, v0.4 is really unstable right now. I would
not expect them to publish updates to NEWS.md for new things that could get
reverted a few days later. If you want to monitor updates, Github provides
some really nice tools, like the Pulse
page:
Although I believe Jiahao is looking for someone to step up and take charge of
a this week in Julia publication. Hans, since you want this information
yourself, you've just made yourself the perfect candidate.
As that pulse link that Adam forwarded shows, there is a _lot_ of material to
cover
It's a bit odd for there to be simultaneous complaints about 0.4 being unstable
(ie under rapid development) and not going anywhere. It's been, what, 13 years
since the plans to release Perl 6 were announced? Seems a bit early to worry
about that kind of problem a couple of months after the
This is how I set up my environment to stay involved:
julia - master
julia3 - release-0.3
julia4on3- use 0.4 packages on julia3 (this is helpful since I like to
develop in the v0.4 directory)
julia-multi - run something with 0.4 packages on julia and julia3 (I
normally only use this with
I also keep separate installations of julia: I have both julia-0.3 and
julia-0.4 installations in separate directories, with the julia symlink only
referring to julia-0.3

I think it's more correct to check out tags since there seems to be work being
done progressively on that branch to keep up with backports.
Not totally sure, though.
