I'm an occasional node developer so please excuse me if I'm missing something obvious. As I understand it, es6 features are supposed to be added pretty soon. Among them being, a new way to define classes and standard data structures such as maps.

Node obviously has its own way of defining classes, inheriting, etc. Will standard libraries be upgraded to use the new syntax?

I have a tcp protocol library that I'm looking to improve. I was thinking of having it implement the streams interfaces and to generally improve my code. However, I haven't been able to find any information on what is going on with node/io in the short/medium term.

Thanks
