The answer to both is 'no' - node.js v0.10 doesn't build with V8 >= 3.15 and there is no dedicated security team - but you can file a request in the bug tracker. I speculate that back-porting fixes will prove difficult: V8 3.14 is unmaintained and has been for a long time (even before node.js v0.10 was released, actually) and the delta between 3.14 and 3.23+ is positively massive. You may have better luck holding out for v0.12. -- -- Job Board: http://jobs.nodejs.org/ Posting guidelines: https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Mailing-List-Posting-Guidelines You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "nodejs" group.
