Hearing that makes me really happy. Thanks Orta 😊
Andy from our team was amazingly diligent in the work, and @left_pad, the @babeljs team, and @MrJamesHenry really pitched in a ton to review the changes. I really have to give them credit for doing such a kick-ass job.

Thanks to @ecris87, @mjackson, @elaurent_, and isacjunior for their contributions to babel-upgrade, published 0.0.24! (Also a reminder that babel-upgrade is actually a thing at all; it tries to helps you upgrade to v7)
