In addition to the TC39 panel Q&As, I think it would help to do more in-depth conversations! (on the Babel podcast, tbd) Anything you want to know? Ex: How do proposals move forward? What is a meeting like? How are things documented? What is consensus?

I must say, I'm very surprised by the results of this poll. Almost no one still on Babel 6, at least in the Parcel world. Must mean that they did a good job making it relatively easy to upgrade. Nice work, @babeljs! πŸ‘ P.S. we will be dropping Babel 6 support in Parcel 2! πŸ₯³
Poll: If you use Parcel with a custom Babel config, are you using Babel 6 or Babel 7? (We are considering dropping Babel 6 support in Parcel 2)

More companies should be aware of this in Babel and more collectives should set this up. Doing support from your community! link.medium.com/difUNyu8RW
