Alex Crichton (Apr 22 2020 at 14:22):

so we'll need to update wasmparser

Alex Crichton (Apr 22 2020 at 14:22):

and... everything else

Yury Delendik (Apr 22 2020 at 14:22):

yeah, shall we do it in advance?

Yury Delendik (Apr 22 2020 at 14:24):

do you know the timeline for other tools?

Alex Crichton (Apr 22 2020 at 14:30):

@Yury Delendik I think they're trying to coordinate for a "big bang" all at once

Alex Crichton (Apr 22 2020 at 14:31):

it sounds like v8 lands this weekend with canary releases soon after

Alex Crichton (Apr 22 2020 at 14:31):

and llvm on monday

Alex Crichton (Apr 22 2020 at 14:31):

and tlively mentioned he'd try to get a patch for rust to backport

Alex Crichton (Apr 22 2020 at 14:31):

Yury Delendik (Apr 22 2020 at 15:18):

@Alex Crichton I started https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wasmparser/pull/207 do you know what we will do about new/removed ops?

Renumber SIMD ops by yurydelendik · Pull Request #207 · bytecodealliance/wasmparser

Trying to address WebAssembly/simd#209 Few questions: What to do with disappeared ops: I8x16Mul, I64x2AnyTrue, I64x2AllTrue, I64x2TruncSatF64x2S, I64x2TruncSatF64x2U, F64x2ConvertI64x2S, F64x2Con...

Alex Crichton (Apr 22 2020 at 16:30):

@Yury Delendik how so?

Alex Crichton (Apr 22 2020 at 16:30):

I figured we'd just sync with the spec, issue a major version, and be done with it

Yury Delendik (Apr 22 2020 at 16:32):

Okay, if they disappear from spec, we will remove them

Alex Crichton (Apr 22 2020 at 16:36):

yeah I figure that it's all unstable anyway

Alex Crichton (Apr 22 2020 at 16:36):

and this is the part where there's no stability guarantee :P
