Hi folks, some updates on the next Elixir v1.19:

  1. Many folks are running into the regex issue when trying Elixir v1.19 and Erlang/OTP 28. We may have a solution for it on Erlang/OTP 28.1 (I believe around September), so I recommend holding off on Erlang/OTP 28 until then

  2. Elixir v1.19 ramps up the usage of the type system considerably and, as consequence, some of you have reported compiler slow downs which we would like to avoid. We have been working hard on fixing those bottlenecks but it will delay the release of the next RC

It is yet unclear if we will delay 1.19 until Erlang/OTP 28.1 or if we will release it earlier and then include Erlang/OTP 28 in a patch release. In any case, we should have at least one additional RC, so we will include more information when it is finally out.
