#2Meteor is so awesome. Yesterday was coding my project and was thinking about why I have to install meteorite. Today I can just use one tool...
A great example of many good patterns like: Ship basic version, but well-tested one. Then add things once community starts using them (3rd part packages). Also remove quirks that confuse ppl, like auto css reloading.

#3The new package system was one of the last missing part for Meteor 1.0 so it's really a good news. And Isobuild, isopack are really promising. Can't wait to see the result!

#4It's very convenient that I can install both front-end package and back-end package by the same package management system!

#5What is Isobuild? The blog post doesn't actually say, and Googling [meteor isobuild] just turns up the blog post.
(Is Isobuild the tool that implements "proper single loading?")

#7Last time I looked at Meteor I decided I wouldn't use it until there was support for server side rendering and the live updates were implemented more efficiently with triggers instead of polling. Are those implemented yet?

Live updates were implemented with listening to MongoDB replication log back on 0.7.0: https://www.meteor.com/blog/2013/12/17/meteor-070-scalable-d...
This is a much more efficient way to get updates from the database and it also scales horizontally to multiple application servers (and multiple MongoDB replicas!)

I too was disappointed that the blog post doesn't go into any detail about unibuild.
One of the best and only explanations of isobuild is in this talk by Geoff Schmidt, one of the founders of meteor: http://youtu.be/EZUfQ1zA_NM?t=11m33s
[iso]build
Like 'make' or 'scons' but for distributed systems.
One source tree
One package system
Multiple languages
Multiple targets
Multiple architecturesRe: Introducing Meteor 0.9.0, the Meteor Package Server, and Isobuild

Very cool, thanks. Is server side rendering coming soon as well?
