Possible to upgrade to newer version of iojs?

[probins]

More of a question than an issue. Readme mentions ramr/nodejs-custom-version-openshift which provides a technique for doing this with nodejs. Does this also work with this cartridge? I might be interested in upgrading to 3.0.0 if so.

Currently - no. io.js was moving very quickly when I created this cartridge and wanted a bit more fine control over which version was used. It is starting to slow down / stabilize so I might move to resolving versions on the gears in the very near future.

ok. I'll leave this open for the moment as a reminder. Feel free to close if you prefer.

@connyay seeing as Node.js v4 is about to go live (which is the convergence of io.js and Node.js), any chance of bumping to v4?

Ref: nodejs/node#2522

@IWhitfield Once v4 is out of RC I will bump. I have been mashing F5 so don't you worry 😁

Decided to split v4 to a new repo can be found here.

@IWhitfield if you decide to try out node4 pay careful attention to env variables

Node.js v4 is running here: http://node4-connyay.rhcloud.com/

there's still a need for easy version upgrade with the new node4 as well.
