Topic: ✔ Calendar for releases?

Hi there! I was wondering where's the planned next release of Wasmtime, so we can decide whether to wait for a release, or to maintain a fork of our own to cherry-pick some fixes that are of particular interest to us. I've looked at the RFC and what it says is This RFC proposes releasing Wasmtime on Tuesday every 4 weeks. The precise date of each release may be adjusted to avoid coinciding with public holidays, though, which could result in some releases being a slightly different width apart.. So I can proooooobably compute the next release date based on the previous one, but that might be imprecise because of the second sentence. Is there a list of releases with associated dates somewhere, that I missed? (If not, would it be interesting to set up something like that?) I'm thinking about something simple, consider: https://wiki.mozilla.org/Release_Management/Calendar but with even fewer columns, only version number and date. Could come also pretty handy to answer specific queries like "knowing the date of a commit, in which release is it?" with a quick glance at such a table.

Until we figure out a better system to manage this the current logic is gated here which is:

• “At 00:00 on day-of-month 5” we get a PR to bump Wasmtime's version
• Someone still has to manually merge the PR, which will probably be on the next workday that we're not all on vacation

tl;dr; next relase probably around dec 5

Good to know, thanks!

Hey folks! I don't need a new release urgently, but it's now past day-of-month 5 and I don't see a version bump PR having been created?

Looks like the publish bot panicked: https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wasmtime/runs/4419646007?check_suite_focus=true

think we need to make cranelift-codegen's dep on isle exact

I think we can retrigger the job after this PR merges: https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wasmtime/pull/3587

Hi All. I haven't seen a port to Dart/Flutter. I was thinking of tackling this myself. Should i start by looking at the Rust, Go or Python embedded projects?

Alex Crichton (Dec 15 2021 at 22:58):

I'd recommend taking a look at wasmtime-{dotnet,py,go,cpp} in the bytecodealliance org as a starting point. None of them are as "complete" as the Rust API per-se because they're all based on the C API which is less "complete" than the Rust API, so starting from the Rust API may not be your best bet to start off with (but we can of course add anything necessary to the C API over time)

Ok great! Thanks.
