Bring the Node.js fork up to date?

[Michael Morrison]

It may be an appropriate time to rebase the nodejs branch, now that we're rebasing chromium. The nodejs in node-webkit is nearly a year out of date.

The plan was to rebase Node in 0.5.0, but it cannot be done in the time frame due to bigger changes than expected (libuv). So we'll do it in some next version.

btw, is there any strong need to use Node v0.10 rather than v0.8?

Streams are pretty awesome in 0.10 (although they can be backported to 0.8)

0.10 has a lot of improvement, among which stream and bug fixes in socket and http hangout….

0.5.0 already slipped its schedule. If it is too risky to backport to node.js 0.10 in a short time (especially for the libuv changes), I would prefer to postpone it to next release. So people could use new node-webkit earlier, since we already have some good features and merged with latest Chromium and WebKit.

I agree, it'd be better to just get 0.5 out for now so we can take advantage of all the nice improvements there. :) That being said, it would be nice if node could get bumped up in the not too distant future - I've definitely run into some bugs in node that seem to be fixed in more recent versions.

Cheers,
Chris.

The rebase to Node v0.10.5 is done in git. It will be released in 0.5.1 soon.

[Chris Granger]

@Roger that's great! Any idea when you're going to release binaries for 0.5.1? I'd love to use those for the release I'm doing early next week. :)

Cheers,
Chris.

It is planned to be released this week, after the fix for #663 and
'nwfaketop' fully functional in #534

I've just tried it, and it works like a charm.

Thank again Roger !
