ECMAScript moves to GitHub

This release marks the beginning of ECMAScript's journey toward version 2016. I am excited to announce that ECMAScript's development has moved to GitHub and ECMAScript's specification has moved from Word to Ecmarkup—a custom dialect of HTML built for writing ECMAScript specifications. This change will make it much easier for the JavaScript community to contribute to its development.

The current specification is simply a conversion from the ES2015 Word document using some awesome tools. This process introduced a number of bugs. These will be worked out in future releases. Please help us by filing bugs for issues you find!

Going forward I will be releasing new drafts of ECMAScript using GitHub releases. Watch this repository to stay up to date!
