I must have missed it if so -- do the notes record it?
As Andreas Rossberg points out, ES6 will take years to be fully
implemented. The more we speculate (lay bets), the bigger our potential
losses.
At this point, I personally want to see ES6 more spec'ed *and*
implemented (not saying it's not spec'ed fully, the lag is on the
implementation side -- but that can feed back on the spec).
Anything further, even a "simple" (hah!) thing like naming, seems
somewhere between "good intentions to try out on the wider community"
and "hubris". Let's avoid the latter. I think we're soaking in the former.
