Full corral and ponyup support with binaries is close for Linux and Windows. “Above the surface” this week, Windows for Arm support landed in ponyc. Under the surface, much work continues on Arm64 binaries for Linux.
LLVM 18 support is here. Ditto for Linux Arm support and Alpine prebuilt binaries for ponyc. It’s an exciting time.

I don’t have a good summary for this past week. Most work focused on getting Pony working with LLVM 18, which I haven’t written about yet. Here’s some Loretta Lynn for you to listen to while you read the rest of this week’s issue.
There’s a new version of Pony on the block. Come and get it!
We hope to update our supported LLVM version soon.
This past week in Pony included updates to SSL builders with two new additions and two deprecations. The April 8th development sync was brief, covering only beginner help questions. Office Hours featured wide-ranging discussions from Florida wildlife to the Actor Model, RDMA, and state replication in distributed systems. The team explored how Actor Model concurrency creates programs well-suited for state replication, with insights from financial industry applications.
Office Hours was the most happening thing in Pony this week. At least as far as your fearless author knows.
