Top devs are leaving node behind.. what that means?
-
Im talking to a friend.. he said some great dev's are moving out node core development... on of them is the express and koa creator... but his posts.. seems like "i had a fight with someone inside the core development and google paid me to say good things about GO.. and that have to program in GO for now" ...
what do you guys think?

Time will expose what the reason was, whether it was a dispute, or money. It's unfortunate that there's so much rivalry going on in the Node.js core (what with the leadership swap from earlier this year).
This shouldn't affect Node.js v0.11, and I don't agree with TJ's conclusion that focusing on efficiency is the wrong direction.
... but the NodeBB team is pretty far removed from the Node.js core, so I don't think we'll be abandoning it any time soon
