We have a v7.x branch which owns the v7.x versioning so master needs to move on to v8. One of the primary problems we have right now is nightly builds: https://nodejs.org/download/nightly/ they are still coming off master so the only v7.x builds you see there are from master and not from the new v7.x branch. I'd like to have v8.0.0-pre builds coming out of master and start a new nightly stream off v7.x-staging.

I don't think we're updating NODE_MODULE_VERSION at the same time here, that's going to come when we bump V8 on master right? I've already forgotten how our conversation about that played out, @thealphanerd?

V8 was already bumped to 5.4, is it going to be bumped again to 5.5+?

Not just V8. Backwards incompatible changes to src/node.h or other public headers or e.g. upgrading to libuv v2 would warrant bumps too.

@rvagg I think we left it that the bump would happen when a change landed that required it.

OK, no NODE_MODULE_VERSION bump. Could I get an lgtm or two for just the major version bump here so we can start splitting off nightlies for v7 and v8?
