Node v0.5 Roadmap
summary
Roadmap asserts Node v0.5 refactors I/O plumbing to add Windows compatibility via IOCP by introducing a C shim called liboio C library, aiming to land TCP/socket support into master next week with tests; goal is distributable .exe binaries and prebuilt npm add‑on DLLs. Benchmarks target 10,000 idle connections and gigabit loopback throughput. Long stack traces and minimal JS API change are promised, with emphasis on heavy C testing and early benchmarking to avoid regressions.
