I really hope people start paying more for software someday.

I paid for Sublime - it's my favourite editor by far. There are ways for companies to support themselves while having their offering be open source though. And I think Sublime might need to eventually to compete

There is a way, selling support. Do you really see people paying for commercial support of Sublime?

Open source makes a lot of sense for things developers use in common (i.e. language runtimes, compilers, libraries, etc.) because they can all "give back." This is entirely consistent with developers selling application-specific software to other people.

ES7 expertise? I thought ES6 was just finalized a few days ago.

ES7 was developed concurrently with ES6. ES6 is also officially known as ES2015 now with ES7 being referred to as ES2016. Apparently the goal is to ship functionality to the language on an annual basis.

It's okay hopefully all this gets merged into atom when these projects don't get the userbase they are looking for.

They said they'd like to make this stuff work as Atom plugins eventually

I think they say in the video that they were developing them as Atom plugins from the outset - i.e. Nuclide isn't a piece of software on its own, Nuclide IS Atom.

Where do one keep up to date with the ES news? W3C mailing lists?
