When will new ws release be out? Master is far ahead of current npm version

[timjrobinson]

I noticed there was a lot of changes in this PR: #782 that were merged in July but a new release of ws still hasn't been published. I'm still experiencing #809 and it looks like this update has restructured the lib/Sender class so it may have fixed it, but I can't use this new code yet because it's not released.

Is there something you're waiting on before releasing a new version?

Also there are bug fixes that are essential and not applied to the master yet

I support this gesture. Would like to hear from @JacksonTian

After looking into it, we probably can't release another minor version because we've already broken compatibility in many ways when switching to ES6. So our next release will have to be a major version, but we're not yet ready for that yet because there are still things to consider for a major version release. I'll talk to the other maintainers about what we want to include in the major version. In the meantime, npm lets you install specific commits of a GitHub repository, if you really need the work that's been done on master.
