Jetbrains promised to publicly announce something new. Hope it will be something cool enough and not an MPP update K

[Ruckus]

1. Why isn't an update to MPP cool enough?
2. They promised to announce a new "product for teams". I don't think MPP fits that bill.

[Ruckus]

All our products are built by teams - our latest is created to deliver what teams need to get work done.

Watch the launch of our new product live on ...

[michmanharitonov1]

Because MPP is meh enough
Didn't heat about teamy thingie

[michmanharitonov1]

Hear*

[michmanharitonov1]

For example public release of reusing containers in the library testcontainers on the conference was cool enough

[Ruckus]

I guess you and I have different ideas of "cool" 🙂

[michmanharitonov1]

Definitely. It's totally about point of view

[Ruckus]

Indeed. So I guess no matter what they announce someone will find it cool enough.
(Granted, the flip side is no matter what they announce someone will fine it too lame.)

From what I heard about the product it’s not even gonna be kotlin related

[michmanharitonov1]

If its not kotlin-related, then its meh-related

[Eugen Martynov]

This conversation has different taste while I’m watching the “No country for old men” :)

[Oleg Yukhnevich]

it will be kotlin related, of course

[Ruckus]

What makes you say that?

[Oleg Yukhnevich]

because it will be announced on KotlinConf
it's not JetBrainsConf
So it's logical, that it will be somehow related to kotlin, no?
And, some info exists, that - new project is fully written in kotlin

[Ruckus]

Written in Kotlin doesn't necessarily mean related to Kotlin.

[Ruckus]

I'm not saying it definitely won't be, just that all the hints so far make it sound more targeted at development in general, and not Kotlin specific.

[dalexander]

Not Kotlin related really, but also not disappointing?

[Ruckus]

Indeed

[michmanharitonov1]

Basically the GitLab killer
