Elixir v1.6.0-rc.1 released
Hi everyone,
We are glad to announce that the second release candidate for Elixir v1.6.0 is out.
Check out the CHANGELOG and give the release candidate a try. Since this is a pre-release, you may not find it in package manager, so you will have to use the precompiled packages, a version manager, or compile from source.
Thanks everyone who gave it a try and reported bugs so far.
Happy coding!

Thanks! 
So far I’ve been testing our project with the RC-0 version and I have not found any problems. In fact everything has worked properly and the compilation times have been reduced.

I’ll second that you should give a version manager a try. Any of the Elixir specific version managers will do the trick, but I highly recommend asdf.
If you work with any other languages there is a good chance you need to manage those as well, asdf will do that just as well as it manages Elixir. On our team we manage Erlang, Elixir, Node, Python and Ruby versions with the same tool.

It won’t - it has been moved to 1.7 so we can collect more feedback and evolve it further before merging.

I use it for same tools, and… it work’s great 
Any problems I had was actually due to the problems with ruby sources in general, and not the asdf per se.
