Hey HN, author here. A comment I wrote re: await (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14447682) jumped to the top of the node 8 announcement last week so I thought I'd expand on what it's actually like using await in production.
We're not proactively removing cbs everywhere, but doing them on a per-module basis. Additionally if we're doing some other work, we'll remove callbacks and .then() where we see them.
Additonally, we're keeping express for now - Express 5 is supposed to have some new stuff to make await easier and we'll gladly wait rather than jumping onto Koa etc.
