I think the trend is more in the direction of moving features out of Base and into separate packages since this brings some advantages for development. Could it be that the motivation behind that question is a desire for an easy to install, standardized set of packages? If so, something like a Julia distribution or an "essentials" meta package might be a better solution.
Having binaries from Julia apps would make this thing blow up. Deploying stuff would be so easy with binaries.
11:55 This thing about how many people hack into compiler in various packages and how core team want to make it easier for them blown me away.
Here for Stefan's talk ... thanks JuliaTeam
Amazing! I can hardly wait for the future of the Julia Language!
Yes, amazing. This part about making compiler more hacking friendly blow me away.
16:17 Mind blown second time in the row.
26:00 what is "AD"?

Cool.
Is jet.jl going to be integrated into base Julia at any point?

@D Yeah I think julia needs something like anaconda.
