Hi Ivan,

Is there any chance you can estimate when the next Highlight.js release might be?

(Prompted by a Markdown Here user opening an issue for me to update Highlight.js to get better Matlab support...)

Thanks.

Adam

Hey Adam,

I can't give you an honest estimate as my time share for highlight.js is
currently not very predictable. If I'm gonna guess it might take
something from a week to a month.

For the record, no we didn't abandon discrete releases :-). But you can
safely get a snapshot of the current master and build it for your
project, as the master is fairly stable in terms of quality.

Thanks. That's good enough for me.

Except... I have to use official Highlight.js releases or else the Mozilla extension review people get mad at me.  :(

Hi Ivan,

I got another request from a Markdown Here user to update Highlight.js, so it’s time for me to ask again…

Any idea when you might put out the next release?

Thanks.

OK, this time I have a reasonable assumption that I should be able to
push the next release before the end of this month. It was a really long
hiatus but lately I sorted a lot of my stuff out and will be back
working on the project soon.

And I did! The release went public yesterday on a new site
http://highlightjs.org/.

Thanks!

Frankly, the work wasn't that hard at all, I just couldn't find time for
it until now. The hard work is all ahead :-).

That's great news, Ivan. Thanks. I'll put a Markdown Here update that uses it soon.
