Same procedure as every week, Matthias!

Pony 0.21.1 and 0.21.2 released

We got lucky this christmas and have been gifted with two new releases!

0.21.1 brought us

This release comes with improved stability and memory consumption of the runtime, so updating is recommended.

0.21.2 is a bugfix release for Dynamic Thread Scheduling, and thus it deserves our gratefulness even more.

Items of note

Due to the holidays there has been no Pony Development Sync this week. The next one is scheduled for Wednesday, January 3, 2017 at 03:30 PM (GMT-05:00) America/New York via zoom. We’d love to have you there.

New RFCs

There is a new RFC out for Class and Actor field Docstrings.

Interested in making a change, or keeping up with changes to Pony? Check out the RFC repo. Contributors welcome!
