My two cents also. Right now the gradle-js-plugin is broken for 1.11 and
1.12 <https://github.com/eriwen/gradle-js-plugin/issues/83>, so this is
preventing us from trying out any newer releases. There is an open pull
request with the fix <https://github.com/eriwen/gradle-js-plugin/pull/92>,
but it is not merged yet.
