2.13.0-RC1 timing: January 2019

The good news is:

  • many more libraries have published for 2.13.0-M5
  • there will be no need for an 2.13.0-M6, as we had feared
  • the 2.13 community build is looking strong, with as many as 83 green projects (currently lower because of small recent breaking changes, but regaining that ground won’t be hard)
  • Julien has completed the work on updating parallel collections, and we will publish it for RC1
  • there are just 22 open RC1 PRs in scala/scala
  • scala/bug is down to 14 open RC1 issues on the RC1 milestone
    • plus just 2 RC1 tickets in scala-dev
    • and no open tickets left in collection-strawman, which is now archived

but the bad news is obvious, we didn’t make the January target, and a couple weeks or so of work remains.
