Scala 2.8 RC 1 next week
Tue, 2010-03-23, 22:17
In today's Scala meeting we decided that we'd hold off another week for the
RC 1. The main reason is that @specialized annotations for functions and
tuples have not yet landed in trunk and we really do want to have them in
2.8. If there is another reason to hold off for longer, please let us know
by next Tuesday (March 30th).
Cheers

Is the plan to only add the annotations or to also enable -Yspecialize
by default?

Thanks, Martin. I think @specialized is pretty cool and I'm glad that
there's a push for it to be enabled in 2.8. I hope there will be a way
for users to disable it in case issues arise though (so that they can
test their applications with the RCs until these issues are fixed).
Best,
Ismael
