Guys, just my humble opinion... I don't think node APIs will directly make use of generator (or promises) in a near future, since they will break almost everything. What, to me, is more important is to understand weather developer can reasonably hope to have support for these features in the platform or not, so that new higher-level APIs and framework could be built on top of it. For what I understand, after quite a lot of research, v8 will more likely NOT enabled harmony features without flag until the standard is finalized. That being, according to people on es-discuss, something around end of Q1 for a RC version, end of the year for the final Ecmascript 6 publication Thanks everybody for helping!
