Yes, there are plans for upgrading components of MooTools. Because many people use it these changes have to be done in steps.
Now we are releasing 1.6.0 and that will be the last version supporting old IE browsers, which opens doors for some modernization. We have discussed upgrading Request, using more of ES6 stuff, replace Fx with mooFx, refactoring delegation, drop compat layer, etc... some are agreed other under discussion. We have put a lot off efford into making Specs better so we can change code and have something to test against. This part is now quite strong. What is needed is people putting time into the new ideas. Sending PRs etc. If you want to influence the future you are welcome. You are all welcome :) You can reach the dev team here and in #irc. The comunity need should be the motor driving forward. Cheers On Mon, Jan 18, 2016 at 5:16 PM, TeilZeitMensch <thomashansm...@gmail.com> wrote: > > And is there a vision, where MooTools will go to?
