   I'd like to invite everyone to view issues like this from a community perspective. The whole first goal of this project is to preserve the existing status of the open source project and set up administrative structures to enable broader participation. So, there's no attempt to drop 2.12 from the initial release.
   
   From there on, we'll see where it will go. In any case, it will require offers from the community to take on issues they see as pressing. Maintaining such a big project really is difficult and time consuming. I created these items originally, to show which current properties of the existing codebase make evolution more difficult (in this case, making sure everything works on at least 3 Scala versions can be a significant drain in productivity and often caused bugs).
   
   IMO, the situation is pretty good even for 2.12 support: there will be an initial release supporting 2.12 and the basic organizational structures are set up that will allow the community to backport pressing issue to that first release branch and have some hope to get them released.
