One thing that makes this release tricky is that the differential modern/legacy bundling system sounds so much like something that any modern JS application must be doing already, but no! I've yet to come across any framework besides Meteor that makes differential bundling possible, let alone easy.
I'm happy to answer any questions, and I'd love especially to hear about any similar systems that you've used, heard of, or even just imagined. If you're involved with another full-stack web framework, we should chat about how you might implement a system like this that works for your developers.
Everyone in the JavaScript community should be able to use native ECMAScript features directly, without the layers of compilation, and without sacrificing support for older browsers. That's the future we've all been hoping for, so I hope we can share our best ideas across frameworks and between the various JS sub-communities.
This is awesome, congrats on the release! Also looking forward to playing with the new --minimal flag which effectively lets you create Meteor apps that have virtually no client-side footprint.
