Julia 1.11 was released on 7 October 2024 (and 1.11.45 on 1014 MarchApril 2025), and with it 1.10.5 became the next [[long-term support]] (LTS) version (i.e. those are the only two supported versions), since replaced by 1.10.8 released on 10 March, and 1.6 is no longer an LTS version. Julia 1.11 adds e.g. parallel garbage collection and a new <code>public</code> keyword to signal safe public API (Julia users are advised to use such API, not internals, of Julia or packages, and package authors advised to use the keyword, generally indirectly, e.g. prefixed with the <code>@compat</code> macro, from ''Compat.jl'', to also support older Julia versions, at least the LTS version). Julia 1.11.1 has much improved startup (over 1.11.0 that had a regression), and over 1.10, and this can be important for some benchmarks.
<!-- I think this is now outdated: Some users may want to postpone upgrading to 1.11 (e.g. those calling Julia from R), because of known temporary package incompatibility.
