I want to write a plugin using scala 2.11
sbtPlugin := true
scalaVersion := "2.11.0"
The current sbt release (0.13.9) is built on scala 2.10.5
https://github.com/sbt/sbt/blob/0.13.9/build.sbt#L27
EDIT:
Does build against 2.11 in the community build.

Best Answer
We can't break binary compatibility for all the sbt 0.13 plugins until we release the next version sbt 0.14 or potentially sbt 1.0, so no Scala 2.11.x sbt until then.
Update:
One way to work around this is to use Fork API. sbt 0.13 is capable of building Scala 2.11 source using Scala 2.11 compilers. You can mimic the way its done, and run Scala 2.10 or 2.11 code from sbt.
