I have a high-level question -- what is the current state of roc? It seems that things have been in flux for a while, but with the updated module syntax and the !
change complete, are we at a point where things may slow down and focus will return to stability and working towards a 0.1 release? i ask because there still seem to be a lot of seg faults and tooling issues (100% from lsp, for example) and i'm trying to understand how i should think about the current short term goals for the language. none of this is an issue, i'm just curious.
the core of the language feels like it's at a nice spot to me at this point, but i'm definitely not close to the development
I don't really have an answer, but I think a number of larger pieces would be wanted before a 0.1 release:

.Some likely nice to haves:
Not sure which of these are true blockers or if I am missing anything, but definitely a solid bit still in flux. That said, most of these don't really effect the look and feel of roc as a language. Most of it is more around platform dev and completeness.
I'd love to track these issues down and make a milestone, I was thinking 0.1.0
or something. Would that be a bad idea?
personally I’m thinking about 0.1 as something we do when we think there’s enough benefit to justify it
I don’t have a checklist or anything in my mind :big_smile:
