Hello guys! Sorry for not responding early, I have pretty long backlog in my inbox. While I'm not the leader of node.js project (TJ Fontaine is), I could perhaps shed some light on the current state of things.
I think we are almost done with update to v8 3.24 and I'm quite sure that we will stick to it in the v0.12 release, but in case of any trouble we could always easily revert it back to the current version. All API changes that has happened since 3.22 are very minor and are mostly about argument order or stuff like that. Regarding, overall status: we are working hard on getting v0.11 feature-set freezed. I think only a couple of things left before that would be possible. After that, there will be (hopefully) short period of stabilization (read: bug fixes) and a v0.12 release. At the time, I prefer not to set any deadlines or give rough estimates, because they are not the thing that we are caring most at the time. The main and the most serious stuff that we are interested is a stability, stability in both API (and feature-set) and core code. Finishing this message, I'd like to ask you to give a try to latest v0.11 releases, as it is the best thing that we all could do to get v0.12 released as soon as possible! Cheers, Fedor.
