Hi all, We're starting preparations for the 7.0 release, and for that reason we'd like to propose opening the breaking change window for 7.0 with the proposals listed below. Some of these are new, and some are carried over from previous releases.
As before, each of these is seeking individual lazy consensus. If you object to any of them or wish for further clarification, please let us know which you would like to stop or discuss, and we can hash it out here on the list, on Slack, in Town Hall, etc. Each proposal is numbered to make sure it is unique — please use this number when referencing a proposal. Carried-over proposals keep their original numbers; new proposals are numbered sequentially starting at 110.
