[1.3.0] Deprecate e4x
Hey all,
The SpiderMonkey folks are slowly retiring* E4X. Since it is
an advertised feature of CouchDB, we should be proactive
about this. I’d like the 1.3.0 release notes to include a
note about E4X support being deprecated and on track to be
removed in the future (without a specific date or release set).
Does anyone have any objections to this?
Cheers
Jan
