I'm surprised the author didn't touch on the massive changes to Pkg. Now Pkg is a lot more like npm, allowing for "project" level packages rather than requiring global packages.

Good point, that is huge, I was intending to mention it as the start (and have done so now).

It like the getfield overloading and a few other things really deserve a post of their own, so I wasn't going to try and push them into this one.

He explained that at the beginning of his post - things like the Pkg changes are getting quite a lot of press already, he wanted to highlight the things that people might not have realized were coming in v0.7/v1.0.

Also the new Pkg is massively faster.
