Copying over my comment from #8503 (comment):

I have a draft of a document explaining the new features and performance improvements that are coming with V8 5.4: https://gist.github.com/targos/eda0bd7068e38b5ece5802aaefa6e601

I don't know if this should be in the changelog, on a blog post or something else ?

jasnell · 2016-10-14T19:03:42Z

Likely will include a short statement in the changelog but will provide more detail in a blog post

doc/changelogs/CHANGELOG_V7.md

+* [[`07dbf7313d`](https://github.com/nodejs/node/commit/07dbf7313d)] - **(SEMVER-MAJOR)** **promise**: hard deprecation for unhandled promise rejection (James M Snell) [#8217](https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/8217)
+* [[`ecf474ceba`](https://github.com/nodejs/node/commit/ecf474ceba)] - **(SEMVER-MAJOR)** **promise**: warn on unhandled rejections (Benjamin Gruenbaum) [#8217](https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/8217)
+* [[`1a9e247c79`](https://github.com/nodejs/node/commit/1a9e247c79)] - **(SEMVER-MAJOR)** **readline**: show completions only after 2nd TAB (Anna Henningsen) [#7754](https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/7754)
+* [[8a87b29034](https://github.com/nodejs/node/commit/8a87b29034)]


Looks like this commit ID is missing back ticks, i.e. should be 8a87b29034

jasnell · 2016-10-18T23:45:45Z

Beta build run: https://ci-release.nodejs.org/job/iojs+release/1272/
This will be the final beta. The plan is to cut the first release candidate on Thursday, followed by a second release candidate as necessary on Monday, with the release targeted for Tuesday, October 25

jasnell · 2016-10-19T00:20:33Z

Beta build artifacts are here: https://nodejs.org/download/test/v7.0.0-test201610180ccb98695e/
This build includes the release bit flipped as this is the final build before the actual release. This is only intended for a final round of testing. The first release candidate should arrive on Thursday.

/cc @nodejs/testing @nodejs/build

jbergstroem · 2016-10-19T01:07:14Z

I'm going to proceed with nodejs/build#500 ahead of Thursday unless anyone has any objections.

rvagg · 2016-10-19T03:18:39Z

@jasnell would you mind rebasing and editing one of my commits that didn't get metadata on master:

rvagg · 2016-10-19T03:23:22Z

@jasnell I've cherry-picked these into v7.x-staging, they were the relevant security updates that went into v6.9.0 that belong here too:

cae9eb3 crypto: fix openssl.cnf FIPS handling & testing
1ea0358 node: --openssl-config cli argument
647afe9 inspector: generate UUID for debug targets

jasnell · 2016-10-19T04:43:24Z

@nodejs/ctc @nodejs/collaborators ... v7.0.0 is almost ready to go. Please take a moment to look over the changelog and let me know if anything looks amiss or should be called out in the notable changes.

jasnell · 2016-10-19T04:43:50Z

@rvagg ... I fixed that commit and pulled in the security fixes.

silverwind · 2016-10-19T05:32:48Z

Probably not relevant to the release, but those hash links in your initial post don't work.

benjamingr · 2016-10-19T11:16:33Z

I'd like to change the wording on unhandled promise rejections.

A few members of the promises community have concerns about that wording and I tend to agree.

Can we go with "promise rejections not handled within the same tick will now emit a warning on the process object unless an "unhandledRejection" event handler is installed"?

targos · 2016-10-19T11:33:29Z

I'd also add a reference to #8317 in the V8 update line. 5.4.500.31 was minor.

rvagg · 2016-10-19T12:16:26Z

@benjamingr if you think the wording on the post(s) at nodejs.org and/or in the changelogs could be improved around that then just file a pull request to adjust it.

jbergstroem · 2016-10-20T20:14:05Z

sunos builds should now show up as smartos.

jasnell · 2016-10-20T20:25:04Z

@nodejs/collaborators ... all, I'm going to be kicking off the first release candidate build in a couple of minutes. This means that after this point, unless the CTC deems it absolutely necessary, I won't be landing any more semver-minor or semver-major commits into v7.0.0. The second RC build will go out on Monday.

jasnell · 2016-10-20T20:29:28Z

~~RC.1 Build: https://ci-release.nodejs.org/job/iojs+release/1283/~~ (cancelled)
~~RC.1 Build: https://ci-release.nodejs.org/job/iojs+release/1285/~~ (argh! failed because I didn't wait long enough before kicking it off.... will try again shortly)
~~RC.1 Build (third time's the charm): https://ci-release.nodejs.org/job/iojs+release/1286/~~
~~Nope, that one hiccuped also... number 4: https://ci-release.nodejs.org/job/iojs+release/1287/~~

Looks like there's some issues with the release job... waiting until those are resolved before continuing...

alright... finally got a good one... almost done: https://ci-release.nodejs.org/job/iojs+release/1289/

@nodejs/testing RC.1 artifacts are here: https://nodejs.org/download/rc/v7.0.0-rc.1/

jasnell · 2016-10-24T17:23:20Z

Will be landing #9253 soon and will be wrapping this up and putting a bow on it. Will do the actual release build tonight and will promote in the morning.

seishun · 2016-10-24T17:35:41Z

Could we still get the libuv upgrade in? /cc @cjihrig

jasnell · 2016-10-24T17:45:15Z

It's a bit too late for that, I'm afraid, There's no time to adequately test it. My plan is to do a quick spin around on a v7.1 next week to get the libuv and icu updates in
