Google, Amazon, and the entire tracking industry relies on IAB Europe’s consent system, which has now been found to be illegal following complaints coordinated by ICCL. EU data protection authorities find that the consent popups that plagued Europeans for years are illegal. All data collected through them must be deleted. This decision impacts Google’s, Amazon’s and Microsoft’s online advertising businesses.

We’re waiting eagerly for node v0.12 to be released. Unfortunately, the release may not happen soon since there are about 800 open bugs and about 180 pull requests waiting to be reviewed.

Is it a real problem? Seems that other popular projects like Ruby on Rails have a similar number of opened issues and it's not stopping them from releasing new versions.

Does the Node core team have any plans how to prevent this situation in the future?

That's not entirely true. If "db.insertUser()" is opening a database connection, who is going to close it on error?

The idea behind Zones for Node.js is to auto-attach new resources to the current zone, so that they can be cleaned when the zone exits.

AFAIK there is no solution for that at the moment.
