Kotlin 1.0.5 is here

What non-Jetbrains IDE supports Kotlin well? What % of its contributions come from outside the Jetbrains ecosystem?

Once Jetbrains no longer controls Kotlin's future and most Kotlin users are not Jetbrains customers, then I'd consider it truly open.

I think you're confusing language openness with freedom of choice for consumption.

I think you're confusing deduction with speculation. I'm fully aware of the difference between language openness and "freedom of choice for consumption". I just don't agree with the wisdom in tying my workflow to a company like Jetbrains.

why? What is wrong with jetbrains, and also what is the connection between then and a free software(kotlin) also, vs code is by microsoft. Any time microsoft can say that plugins needs to be review by them. also vscode is ahead is a very hard option?

Are you upset for the election in USA?
