Node.js v7 Release Brief

Node.js v7.0.0 Release Brief

This is the first release in the new v7.x release line. It marks the beginning of a 6 month long "Current" cycle. The v7.x release line is only recommended for situations were frequent updating is not disruptive and occasional minor instability is acceptable. Otherwise, we recommend you use an LTS release line, either v4 "Argon" or v6 "Boron".

Recompiling native C++ add-ons will be required when upgrading to v7.0.0, use npm rebuild or reinstall your dependencies from scratch.

    url: adding WHATWG URL support


    Implements WHATWG URL support. Example:


    ```
    var u = new url.URL('http://example.org');
    ```


    Currently passing all WHATWG url parsing tests and all but two of the
    setter tests. The two setter tests are intentionally skipped for now
    but will be revisited.
