I was in the room for this talk and I don’t think he meant it like you’re interpreting it. He didn’t mean done as in finished, complete, no more work being done on it. He meant stable. In that talk, Bruce emphasized the 1 breaking change since 2014 I believe. That was a call to the enterprise, to those who are change averse out of necessity. Elixir is stable, he was saying, so it’s safe to come join us.
If you couple Bruce’s talk with Jose’s, you get the sense of a language moving very much in the direction of Python and the PSF. That’s a very good thing for Elixir in the long run. Far from being done, it basically means that it’s getting started for real now.
