Reading thread Nim 1.2.6 and Nim 1.0.8 are out! - Nim forum I noticed that we have a LTS version of Nim. How great is this!
But how does the Nim's eco system relate to this? If 1.0.x is the LTS version, why are quite a few packages requiring pretty new versions (1.4 and higher) of Nim?
Just a question...
We know from the Nim survey that most of our users are on 1.4 -- and for good reasons: ARC became useful with 1.4 and is considered to be critical for Nim's future. Lots of libraries (threading support?) can be done significantly better with ARC.
In other words, we need a new LTS that makes ARC the default. :-)

Makes total sense. Would be great to stick with that for a while then.
