0.3 Editions and versions

The edition (edition = "2027" in oxl.toml) fixes the syntax and semantics. The compiler MUST support all released editions; packages of different editions MUST link together.
The standard library is versioned together with the compiler.
The version of the OxL wire protocol (§9) is independent of the edition and MUST be backward compatible within a major version.

Implementation-defined. Platforms (D-8051; DIV-035; D-1604). The Standard does not require a particular OS or architecture. This implementation (1.0) is built and tested on Linux x86-64 (compiler, target programs, cluster) and on macOS arm64 (macOS 14 and later; TZ 3.1: the compiler and target programs for development; D-8500..D-8599, D-8740). The macOS I/O backend is kqueue (sockets, timers, process events), see impl-io-backend; the differences of the platform are listed under impl-io-backend, impl-abstract-unix, impl-idle-task, impl-fsync, impl-macos-build, impl-debugger. IOCP (Windows) of §8.1 is not implemented, builds for Windows are not shipped and have not been tested. Cross-compilation ([build] targets, III.2) is not implemented: a program is built for the platform oxl runs on. Details — App. D.
