BazelCon 2020 is poised to be a significant event for the Bazel community and the broader build ecosystem, with over 1000 attendees and presentations from leading industry figures from companies like Twitter, Dropbox, and Uber. The conference, set to occur within 24 hours, promises knowledge sharing, networking, and community building through keynote announcements, migration stories, and technical sessions on topics such as Bazel persistent workers and migrating from Gradle to Bazel. Exciting developments include the introduction of Long Term Support (LTS) releases starting with Bazel 4.0, offering users stable, predictable release schedules with extended support, alongside regular rolling releases. LTS releases will occur approximately every nine months, providing new features and bug fixes, with active support for nine months and an additional two years of maintenance for security and OS compatibility. The event also highlights the reboot of the Bazel Federation, which will guide users on ruleset versions to ensure interoperability. Attendees are encouraged to register to participate in this premier build conference.
