Scala 2.13.18 release planning

We decided to expedite the release of Scala 2.13.18.

Anticipated timeline:

  • Thu Nov 6: announce a “release candidate” (nightly build version)
  • Mon Nov 17: build and publish the release
  • Mon Nov 24: announcement

Fixes for the reported regressions (linting, scala 3 varargs interop) have been merged.

Of note: the new release will be signed with a different PGP key scala#11158

I’m planning to include

  • A fix for allowing compilation of Ordering subclasses when compiling on Java 26 (early access) scala#11153
  • An updated ASM build bug#13132
