Kotlin 1.5 support is coming sooooooon! (I know that 1.5-RC was in gerrit earlier too, but this is just straight 1.5)
(also, the reason I'm so excited is that there are a few bugs I'm having with gradle7/agp7 thats supposedly fixed in 1.5. Can't wait till next week!)

@jim also you added "-Xsam-conversions=class" but I don't think that's needed anymore as this issue was marked fixed in 1.5 https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KT-45945

[jim]

That was not the only issue we encountered which required us to add -Xsam-conversions=class, but yes, the flag was intended to be temporary and we're working to clean up the remaining issues and remove that flag. Just needed the flag to get the rest of the CL unblocked while debugging other issues.

[jim]

The intention/ideal is to remove that flag before I merge.

@jim this might be dumb (but I'm learning gerrit so bear with me). Is there a way to tell if a "CL" in gerrit is still under development. Is that what the "Active" label means?

[jim]

A CL is generally under development until it gets merged. If you scroll down to the bottom of the CL, you can see the dates and times that we were doing things with the CL which would give you a better sense of "how active" the development is based on how often/recently it was touched.

[jim]

But yes, the "Active" means it is still in need of work/attention. "Merged" means it's done. "Abandoned" means it is, well, not intended to be merged, often because it was superseded by another CL.

Thank you 😊
