should we go ahead and update this to ES2015 while we're at it?

ES6 is also a valid name. ES2015 is a bit long and the tab doesn't look as good.

-1, the point of that page is also to be friendly. |

I have to agree with @benjamingr - there needs to be a page that explains the flags. Maybe I could work something in to node.green for that- but I would want the node community's input on how that should look. |
|
Hm... most people +1ed here as writing our own es6 would cause a lot of maintaining issues. I wanted to write something myself but I feel whatever I write, it wont solve the problem and I might end up writing a es6 tutorial. node.green is something I always wanted to see. I believe a little bit description on node.green would be helpful. |

Okay, I have an idea: Let's keep the current ES6 page to explain the flags, etc. and just replace the paragraph "Which features ship with Node.js by default (no runtime flag required)?" with a link to node.green – so @williamkapke doesn't have to come up with a way to introduce all the texts to his site. |
|
Wouldn't it be easier if the text is on node.green? One less clicking is good :) |

Half the people want to get rid of the ES6 page, the other half doesn't … just figure something out, I'll adjust the PR then. 😉 |

I'm also in favor of what @fhemberger suggested: keep the page, replace the part with "which features" with node.green. I say we move ahead with that suggestion. |

Okay, I updated the PR: We keep the ES6 page and I added a reference to node.green. Please take a look and let me know what you think. |

Ahh sorry. I assume you mean it's unnecessary and I agree. I don't think we need to "prepare" the end user for what he/she 's about to see. Another downside is we would have to keep the screenshot updated to whatever design changes node.green gets in the future.

LGTM |

Definitely -1 on a static screenshot alone. |

@williamkapke I opened up a separate issue for this in #694. With v6 released, we need the updated ES6 page. |

Fixes #671, requires nodejs/build#394 to land as well.
