The magnitude of your contribution deserves credit. I'll add that now!
0.16 crates are almost done publishing.
Release note deployment is prepped:
https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy-website/pull/2110
I'm going to try adding caldera images / benches before publishing though
Aaa I see the release notes 😍 just in time to stop me from sleeping😂
Convenience link: https://bevyengine.org/news/bevy-0-16/
😄
Quick fix for the migration guide: https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy-website/pull/2111
I'm so excited, Bevy 0.16 is finally here!!
<@&1064695155975803020> sorry i didn’t catch this before, idk how much of a pain it would be to fix things now. @soft gust should definitely be listed as a co-author for his work getting the main atmospherics pr over the finish line and authoring several other prs after the fact
Oh I guess I’ll make a quick pr then
ah right I'm just in the contributors that are in the toml, and I guess we don't show those now
fixed a typo in the notes, and added recognition for @mate-h's hard work in this area :)
Just finished reading trough the notes. Amazing job really, thank you everyone who worked on this release

Congrats all 🫡
Awesome release! Thanks to y'all 🫶
release note authors are supposed to comb through the contributors list and determine who is and isn't a major author; this was done as a simple process to keep folks who contributed rather little to a huge PR ending up listed as a major author of it iirc.
so since you started it with initial implementation and experiments, you probably should maybe be moved to the authors list
Yup, I totally agree: https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy-website/pull/2116
Sorry about that! <3 I checked the source code of the tool that generated the metadata, but I probably misinterpreted something there. Noticed it while reading the release post, but glad it's fixed already.
Couple of tiny notes about the 0.15 to 0.16 migration guide:
The parent/childof change doesn't have an example ofif let Some(parent) = parents.parent(task_entity)(as in the parent method that takes in an entity)Some kind of explicit mention of.children(parent)disappearing would be nice (you can kinda piece it together, but migrating a large codebase, you don't wanna spend too much time on each part initially)
(oops found the relevant parts eventually)- The required syntax change examples, it would be very helpful if there was also an example of a struct, such as:
Plant = Plant { growth_stages: 4 }(because it's a macro and "special syntax", it's not that easy to figure out what everything is supposed to be)
If you'd like to contribute the changes yourself, the migration guide for 0.16 is within the release-content/0.16/migration-guide folder in the website: https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy-website/tree/main/release-content/0.16/migration-guides
If not, open an issue and someone with free time will take a look :)
