We've narrowed the list of proposals and created Moderator questions for all new issues. Please vote and discuss!

@kuvos, @jsfixed advocates for the developer wrt ES 6. Might not be your cup of tea, but we would be delighted if you got involved.

New blog post; The tipping point http://t.co/Av5KzPJt Here's how I feel about the future of js. tldr; not so good.

@jdalton @kuvos I can't believe Crockford likes a lot of the ES.next stuff. I think he's only a passive TC39 member

[Peter van der Zee @kuvos]

This might be the breaking point for me where I decide to move on to a lanugage that's not morphed into something else right under my node.

[JS Fixed @jsfixed]

@kpk https://t.co/rmhO2zD5 is the closest, see also https://t.co/mMlOBXhY. Or add your own!

[JS Fixed @jsfixed]

Actual developers engaging in an earnest discussion of TC39 proposals. @jsfixed at its best. https://t.co/qCfRq0C9

Colin Moock wrote a lot of stuff that I agree http://t.co/DmGxnEYw current ES.next proposals won't solve JS "issues" /cc @jsfixed

[JS Fixed @jsfixed]

We're still getting a good number of new proposals coming in so we're extending the deadline until Monday at 6pm PST.

[JS Fixed @jsfixed]

OK I added the proposal. It will go down in flames but needed to honor my conscience :-)

[JS Fixed @jsfixed]

@kpk but all that legacy code uses var - so no mixing means var only or rewrite old code?

[JS Fixed @jsfixed]

@rvagg It may go away in 10 years. Possibly

[JS Fixed @jsfixed]

@rvagg is that a yes? :-)

[JS Fixed @jsfixed]

Just curious. Is anyone else bothered at the prospect of functional (var) and block (let) scope co-existing? Testing the waters.

[JS Fixed @jsfixed]

@jergason its quite possible we will do this - lets see how the first iteration goes.

[JS Fixed @jsfixed]

Just a friendly reminder that all proposals must be submitted by 6:00 PM PST tomorrow to be eligible for consideration.

[joe larson @joelarson4]

@jsfixed you've made me think of a new idea https://t.co/AyOKgT9q a github backed code pattern analysis site

[JS Fixed @jsfixed]

Excellent summation. RT @polotek: Captured some differing ideas on assessing proposals for @jsfixed. https://t.co/BRhWr0Za
