I think it&#x27;s awesome how well the V8 team is working on these features, and how much more closely the Node core teams are working with the V8 teams.  Much better coherence than in the past.  (at least from the perspective of a mostly passive observer).<p>There are a few bits wrt ES2016&#x2F;2017 that I&#x27;m hoping come in before long as well... will be nice to no longer feel the need for babel, at least on the server-side pieces of many projects.
