Topic: ✔ Stability of WASIp2 / WIT / Canonical ABI

Hello!

I apologize in advance if this is obviously stated somewhere that I missed, but I'm struggling a bit to find out if WASIp2 and the Canonical ABI used are currently in a stable state, or still actively being developed/changed.

I see that the Canonical ABI spec/doc has been changed fairly recently, as well as the reference python code.

Does WASIp2 use some specific version of the Canonical ABI, or is it all still in flux?

Thanks,
~Andrew

The canonical ABI used by WASIp2 hasn't changed in roughly a year. The most recent change you're probably referring to was a minor behavior tweak that does not have a large impact on the understanding or implementation of the canonical ABI. The canonical ABI is not versioned at this time as there's just a single definition.
