Should be a minor version bump. Is there a specific reason to drop support?

Is there a specific reason to drop support?

#112 uses evalpoly which requires at least Julia 1.4.

Should be a minor version bump.

I think it's okay to wait for #112.

[heltonmc]

Yes, sorry. I think also see JuliaLang/julia#33289 and linked PR.

The current code base has some usage of @evalpoly which will be deprecated in the future (though not imminent). But I think it might be best to update the code base to use the function going forward as the macro just lowers to call the function. But I’m happy to change the PR to use the macro as well.

Did I get it right that this is the only "breaking" change in FastGaussQuadrature.jl v0.5? So basically, as a downstream dependency, I do not have to do anything and can just update my package bounds?

[hyrodium]

Sorry for the confusion. Yes, this PR is the only reason for the v0.5.0 release. I think it was better to release v0.4.10 instead of v0.5.0 because this PR does not include breaking changes. The only benefit of releasing v0.5.0 is that we can maintain this package for Julia v1.0 in FastGaussQuadrature.jl v0.4.x, but Julia v1.0.x is no longer maintained and we do not want to maintain for that.

@dlfivefifty Do you have any thoughts on this?

[ranocha]

Thanks! Well, v0.5 has already been released, that's why I noticed this 🙂
