a while ago, you could check the commit history of that file

the matrix of project x clojure version x java version had just gotten out of hand and was pushing both disk space on the box and time to run the full suite so I turned off a lot of old versions

Last State of the Union -- what was the % on 1.6 or earlier?

seancorfield 2019-10-26T00:16:56.055600Z

6% are 1.7 or older...

seancorfield 2019-10-26T00:17:27.055900Z

Looks like nearly all that is 1.7...

2019-10-26T00:23:59.056900Z

Do you see 1.6 and earlier broken out from 1.7 anywhere in the 2019 survey? I see 3.31% on 1.7 and earlier, but don't see any information that separates that out in more detail.

2018 survey results have Clojure 1.6 and earlier as 1%, with separate answer for 1.7 at 6%. That whole collection went down to 3.3% in 2019 survey results.

If you’re using a version of Clojure that old, I’m going to say it’s easier to upgrade than find a working set of old deps

@andy.fingerhut Sorry, I was looking at the State of Clojure 2018 which said 6% were 1.7 or earlier... is there a more recent or more nuanced write up?

2019-10-26T00:34:44.060300Z

More nuanced I don't know. More recent yes: https://clojure.org/news/2019/02/04/state-of-clojure-2019

seancorfield 2019-10-26T00:36:50.060800Z

Hah, why did I think that 2018 would be this year's review?

seancorfield 2019-10-26T00:40:48.061300Z

OK, so 3.31% of 1.7 or earlier is really, really minor...
