discussions repo
- io is a fork of node v0.12 (the next stable version of node.js, currently unreleased)
- io.js will be totally compatible with node.js
- the people who created io.js are node core contributors who have different ideas on how to run the project
- it is not a zero-sum game. many core contributors will help maintain both node.js and io.js
