In the new SIP process, each SIP is assigned a reviewer, who must be someone
14
14
sitting on the SIP committee. The reviewer's job is to carefully read and
15
15
understand the SIP, and to present the SIP before the SIP committee. The
16
16
reviewer must also present their analysis of the SIP to the committee, and then
17
17
the floor is opened up for discussion on the SIP. An explicit goal of the new
18

SIP process is for a decision and next steps to be determined for each SIP

The SIP committee went through five SIPs in the queue. Two new SIPs received a
22
22
number, meaning they passed the first phase of acceptance – that is, the change
23
23
to Scala is accepted in theory, so long as the the committee's design and
24
24
implementation concerns can be adequately addressed in subsequent discussions on
25
25
the SIP. The two SIPs which received numbers (first-round accepted) include:
26
- * [ SIP-26 Unsigned Integer Data Types] ( https://github.com/scala/slip/pull/30 )
27
- * [ SIP-27 Trailing Commas] ( https://github.com/scala/scala.github.com/pull/533 )

Two other passed their first iteration as proposed by [ the new
30

process] ( http://docs.scala-lang.org/sips/sip-submission.html ) :

- * [ SIP-25 Trait Parameters] ( http://docs.scala-lang.org/sips/pending/trait-parameters.html )

The final SIP discussed one was postponed at the request of the authors:

In the case of SIP-22, the authors will reopen it when they feel like taking up
38
41
the proposal again, and addressing the issues they must look into next; in
39

particular, figuring out how async/await can be used inside of a try/catch

Overall, we're happy to report that progress was made on a number of SIPs in the
43
46
queue. In particular, we're excited that 2 SIPs received a first-phase of
44
47
acceptance in receiving their numbers, and look forward to the addition of these

Next month, we will propose a reformed SLIP process focused on shaping this new
48

notion of the Scala "platform," with a completely new committee, consisting of
49

Scala community members. Keep an eye out for developments on the Scala library

Did you know that each month, we conduct our SIP meetings on-air? You can tune

in and ask questions to the SIP committee, and have them answered live! You can
