v0.9.0-rc* issues

[indexzero]

Please post any issues you have with vows@0.9.0-rc1 here. It will not be installed as "latest" automatically yet. You will need to install it explicitly:

npm install -g vows@next
npm install vows@next

Or put the explicit version in your package.json:

{
  // other properties
  "devDependencies": {
    "vows": "0.9.0-rc1"
  }
}

the goal is to release 0.9.0 before the end of next week so please let us know if you have any problems with the release. There are some pretty big changes in there which are documented in the changelog. This is an important step to shipping 1.0.0 with some big wins so we appreciate your help!

Aside: known OSS modules to assure work

• foreverjs/forever
• foreverjs/forever-monitor
• flatiron/winston
• flatiron/nconf

Since all the issues reported with the 0.9.0 release have been fixed here and there have been further comments on it in over a eyar, could it be released now?

0.9.0 would fix a deprecation warning that's currently happening when using vows -v with 0.8.1 run with Node.js 4.4.2. The warning is:

  util.print is deprecated. Use console.log instead.

This issue has already been fixed in latest code on Github.

We ended up going in a different direction, so I'm closing this omnibus issue
