@c0b is this ready to merge?

Maybe we could also update Erlang to v22 ?

c0b commented 5 years ago

yes, and sorry for the delay;

Maybe we could also update Erlang to v22 ? To this one, we all learned from a lesson before, some incompatibility issues happened when we switched a major Erlang version (20 => 21) during an Elixir's major version (1.6.x); we reverted some code and that's why you see the elixir:1.6-otp-21 exists on https://hub.docker.com/_/elixir/

Upstream compatibility matrix is here https://github.com/elixir-lang/elixir/blob/master/lib/elixir/pages/Compatibility%20and%20Deprecations.md#compatibility-between-elixir-and-erlangotp but it doesn't guarantee all 3rd party Elixir apps can run the same way as Elixir 1.8 on top of Erlang22 vs same Elixir 1.8 on top of Erlang21

it's better to keep on top of erlang21, and we can start a new variant, call it elixir:1.8-otp-22
