👉 A #Java library recommendation for tracking file system changes: directory-watcher by @gmethvin. On macOS, it's much faster than the NIO WatchService, as it's based on native FS events instead of polling.

Congrats to the @playframework contributors on the 2.8.0 release!

Play 2.8.0 Released!
It is not a milestone, nor a release candidate. This is a GA version, folks. Therefore, it deserves a blog post:

It's mind-blowing that we've been complaining about how slow it is to publish to Maven Central for YEARS and we've just realized that there was an API to do bundle uploads that does significantly faster releases (1000s modules in 1min). I still cannot believe it.

It’s super-exiciting! Uploading thousands of files to Sonatype can be finished in a minute by using a bundle upload. github.com/xerial/sbt-sonaty… #Scala

First release candidate for Play 2.7 is here: blog.playframework.com/play-…
We expect it to be more stable than the milestone releases, not only in terms of functionality but also moving closer to the point of freezing the APIs.
Try it and let us know if you find any issues. :-)

Apparently, Slack doesn't have any plans to implement code highlighting for back ticks. Please retweet if you want code highlighting with ```js or ```php or ```py or anything else that GitHub supports. Let's show Slack how badly we need this.
Got it. We don't have immediate plans to support specific languages when using backticks, but we'll pass the suggestion along!
