Is there a web site which lists the differences between 1.2 and 1.16?

Also, does anyone know when 1.2 will be ready?

Thanks!

Hi Daniel, the answer to your question will not be answered until 1.2  
has  
been officially released to the public.

1.2 is coming “real soon now”. You can’t rush good cooking or good  
software 🙂

There isn’t yet a comprehensive list of new features in 1.2, however  
Ryan Daigle has been posting reports of new features as they occur on  
his blog: [http://ryandaigle.com/](http://ryandaigle.com/)

Is an upgrade guide a possibility?

- some doc around known incompatibilities, breaking changes, new  
idioms, etc?
- a version 1.1.6 =\> 1.2 migration primer?

Those of us with production customers who don’t live of the edge would  
be grateful.

Thanks, Brittain
