# Announce: Rakudo compiler, Release 2020.07.1 | ||
|
||
On behalf of the Rakudo development team, I'm announcing an | ||
out-of-schedule release of the Rakudo compiler. | ||
Rakudo is an implementation of the Raku[^1] language. | ||
|
||
This release is a point release in addition to the regular, monthly | ||
releases. This release fixes writing of profiler data. | ||
|
||
The tarball for this release is available from <http://rakudo.org/downloads/rakudo/>. | ||
Pre-compiled archives will be available shortly. | ||
|
||
The changes in this release are outlined below: | ||
|
||
New in 2020.07.1: | ||
+ Fixes: | ||
+ Fix profiling results writing | ||
|
||
The following people contributed to this release: | ||
|
||
Patrick Böker, Alexander Kiryuhin | ||
|
||
This release implements 6.c and 6.d versions of the Raku specification. | ||
6.c version of the language is available if you use the `use v6.c` | ||
version pragma, otherwise 6.d is the default. | ||
|
||
Upcoming releases in 2020 will include new functionality that is not | ||
part of 6.c or 6.d specifications, available with a lexically scoped | ||
pragma. Our goal is to ensure that anything that is tested as part of | ||
6.c and 6.d specifications will continue to work unchanged. There may | ||
be incremental spec releases this year as well. | ||
|
||
If you would like to contribute or get more information, visit | ||
<https://raku.org>, <https://rakudo.org/community>, ask on the | ||
<perl6-compiler@perl.org> mailing list, or ask on IRC #raku on freenode. | ||
|
||
Additionally, we invite you to make a donation to The Perl Foundation | ||
to sponsor Raku development: <https://donate.perlfoundation.org/> | ||
(put “Raku Core Development Fund” in the ‘Purpose’ text field) | ||
|
||
The next release of Rakudo (#138), is tentatively scheduled for 2020-08-22. | ||
|
||
A list of the other planned release dates is available in the | ||
“docs/release_guide.pod” file. | ||
|
||
The development team appreciates feedback! If you’re using Rakudo, do | ||
get back to us. Questions, comments, suggestions for improvements, cool | ||
discoveries, incredible hacks, or any other feedback -- get in touch with | ||
us through (the above-mentioned) mailing list or IRC channel. Enjoy! | ||
|
||
Please note that recent releases have known issues running on the JVM. | ||
We are working to get the JVM backend working again but do not yet have | ||
an estimated delivery date. | ||
