Would be nice to have this on melpa stable

robinheghan commented 8 years ago

@jcollard any thoughts on this? I think it's just a matter of adding a git tag for the library to be added to melpa stable.

It's hard to have a "stable" package against an unstable language. That is, many backwards-incompatible changes in Elm itself will likely lead to backwards-incompatible changes to elm-mode. If we were to follow semantic versioning we could pick an arbitrary starting point like 0.x.y to represent the fact that the API may change at any time until Elm itself has a stable release but I feel like that would sort of defeat the point of the whole thing. Would a scheme like that still be useful to you as a MELPA stable user?

robinheghan commented 8 years ago

Yes. It allows me to use Melpa for all my packages. Besides, Elm doesn’t update all that often, and elm-mode is pretty stable in my experience.

Bogdanp commented 8 years ago

Alright, I've tagged the current HEAD as v0.5.0 (as an arbitrary starting point). Let me know if you encounter any issues.

Thanks!
