Hi Michael, I'm not from the Angular Team but I give an advise.
Angular 2 is still a draft (see associated Google Docs <https://drive.google.com/#folders/0B7Ovm8bUYiUDR29iSkEyMk5pVUk>), there is some experiments, prototypes but no releases. So the release or even the beta will not be for this year. Even if Angular 2.0 beta lands this year, it will not be production ready because of the use of ES6 syntax. Angular 2.0 will have the same issue than Dart, the "to ES5" compilation with a limited browser support ( considering that Traceur is experimental <https://github.com/google/traceur-compiler/issues/416> ). So, I think that Angular 1.x have will be used for many more years considering the current ES6 support <http://addyosmani.com/blog/tracking-es6-support/>. Regards, Charly POLY.
