wait, what? https://search.maven.org/artifact/org.jetbrains.kotlin/kotlin-bom/1.5.0/pom

kotlin 1.5 was sneaky released yesterday or did I just miss the announcements? also no tag https://github.com/JetBrains/kotlin yet 🤔

Usually it takes a while to get all the components out, so they always say to wait for the official release blog post.

[thanksforallthefish]

it’s weird it starts from maven central (or maven central is done before git tag), I got it from gradle version plugins: com.github.ben-manes.versions

[dave08]

Maybe, but we still need the intellij plugin and all other components, it shouldn't be too long now though. I think it takes a while to go up to maven central, so maybe they try to do that early in the process.

[thanksforallthefish]

yeah, sorry, that is actually what I meant. our project built and run correctly on kotlin 1.5, but I was also a bit worried with the rest of the ecosystem.

@thanksforallthefish scroll up

[thanksforallthefish]

cool, then I was blind. I quickly scrolled before posting and completely missed that announcement

[trevjones]

anybody working with the jacoco maintainers to get a new release out? they already fixed the main blocker for 1.5 in a snapshot, just need a release pushed to central 😕

You will know when Kotlin is released when a Kotlin broadcast is shown by SDK Man about two days after the official release.

It will be interesting to see what is included in the Kotlin 1.5 release. In particular I want to know what improvements have been made to Kotlin Native (incl C interop), and the Linux targets (eg what is being done to improve ARM Linux support).
