They will all be either resolved or transferred to ES7 (BTW, "ES6.1" is "ES7") But you count is way off relative to any actual remaining issue.. 36 open bugs are categorized under "deferred features" which are actually bugs against material things (such as module loaders) that were removed from the ES6 spec. 9 more are "new feature" requests. the reasonable one I will eventually reassign to ES7 Among the rest, a number are long standing (some predating ES6) editorial or structural issues that aren't going to be addressed this go round. There are actually only a small handful of issues (<5 at the moment) that I'm plan on fixing this week (of course more will also come in) The rest just require some bugzilla house cleaning that is lower priority than actually completing the document. And yes, Ecma does not require a formal public review or response. But TC39 is much more open than required by Ecma.
