> We will be supporting a 0.2 line of releases that maintains compatibility with 0.2 with minimally invasive bug fixes, so this is a good time to switch to 0.2 for production systems.
This release was a fairly long time coming from the previous 0.1 stable release. If you've been considering trying Julia out but were worried that it was moving too fast (it's been moving pretty fast), this is a good time to try it out. Not only will the 0.2 release line be supported with minimally invasive bugfixes, but also the 0.3 release is going to largely consist of performance improvements.
