I've been spending time lately writing a lot of repeated validation code for function parameters and using popular object schema validation libraries like Joi (https://github.com/hapijs/joi) which led me to re-reading and thinking about strawman:guards ( http://wiki.ecmascript.org/doku.php?id=strawman:guards.
**I'm curious what TC39 and the es-discuss' current thoughts and attitudes towards guards is at the moment.** They seem to come up every once in a while in TC39 notes, but usually only through a tangential mention followed by a mix of "that would eliminate the possibility of guards," "guards could work," "let's talk about something else (not guards)." I see that Dave Herman seems to have some opinions on guards and obviously Waldemar has ideas (given his activity on the straw man). Anyone else?
