Supported Scala version

Current Supported version is 2.12.2

Scala Version Policy

Scorg will only support the latest major release of scala. That is currently 2.12.2 it will not support the release candidates or milestone versions.

Scorg library policy

The current libraries that are shipped with Scorg are meant to keep compatibilty with the ones what are currently shipped with Forge excluding these libraries the compiler, xml, continuations, and swing. It was discussed in IRC to drop support for those libraries.

If you want to add a new library for Scorg to support.

1. It must be made for scala
2. You must have a good technical to why it would be better supported in Scorg than shipped with your mod I want to keep this language adapter as small as possible

If you want to drop a library supported by Scorg

1. It must be done during a verion switch of minecraft to not break backwards compatibility within an MC version
2. You must have a good technical reason as to why it should be done

scorg's Issues

What modules to include

As time goes on, the scala library is getting more and more modularized. Which of these modules will be included in Scorg, and which will users have to download themselves? Currently you have scala library, parser combinators, java 8 compat, and reflection. Why specifically these?

Also, what is the update policy for the other libraries. Is updating okay if the change is backwards compatible?

If you look at the work being done on the scala platform, should anything there be considered?

JitPack builds failing

Builds from version 1.1.0 have failed to compile, leaving the latest avaliable version at 1.0.3. Not sure if you're aware of this already, just giving you a heads-up.

Crossbuilding plans?

What are your plans for crossbuilding for multiple scala versions in the future with this mod? Multiple mods depending on different versions of Scala can be a bit of a problem if they aren't shaded and relocated properly.
