io.js 1.5.1 Release

On Monday, March 9th, @rvagg released io.js v1.5.1. The complete change log can be found on GitHub.

Notable changes

  • tls: The reported TLS memory leak has been resolved via various commits in this release. Current testing indicated that there may still be some leak problems. Track complete progress at #1075.
  • http: Fixed an error reported at joyent/node#9348 and npm/npm#7349. Pending data was not being fully read upon an 'error' event leading to an assertion failure on socket.destroy(). (Fedor Indutny) #1103

Known issues

  • Possible remaining TLS-related memory leak(s), details at #1075.
  • Windows still reports some minor test failures and we are continuing to address all of these as a priority. See #1005.
  • Surrogate pair in REPL can freeze terminal #690
  • Not possible to build io.js as a static library #686
  • process.send() is not synchronous as the docs suggest, a regression introduced in 1.0.2, see #760 and fix in #774
  • Calling dns.setServers() while a DNS query is in progress can cause the process to crash on a failed assertion #894

Upcoming Events

  • NodeConf tickets are on sale, June 8th and 9th at Oakland, CA and NodeConf Adventure for June 11th - 14th at Walker Creek Ranch, CA

FYI, after releasing, updates in nodejs/node#1075 indicate that the leak may actually be fixed, keep an eye on that issue but you may be able to announce that it's fixed even though the release notes hedge the language around it.

The v8 patch referenced in "community updates" landed upstream and we merged yesterday. We now have two buildbots provided by Joyent running tests. The next step is fixing the failing tests (a handful)!
