As part of LoopBack 4.0 GA release, I am proposing to publish a 4.0 release of juggler as Current, move [email protected] into Active LTS and move [email protected] into Active LTS (with no Current release line). My argument is that [email protected] is moving to Active LTS and we don't want [email protected] to receive new features from the juggler/remoting dependency, as new features are more likely to introduce unintended problems. Instead, I'd like to have everything under LoopBack 3.x umbrella in Active LTS to clearly communicate those versions are considered as stable and suitable for wide use.

We don't have bandwidth to do backwards-incompatible cleanup while we are making a new major version of juggler. But! We can still drop support for Node.js 6.x as part of this release, this will allow us to start migrating the code base to async/await style without necessarily breaking backwards compatibility.

@bajtos , should we make the 3.x branch first? Other than that, your PR LGTM.

Thank you for the reminder! I have already created that branch but forgot to push it to GitHub. It's online now, see here: https://github.com/strongloop/loopback-datasource-juggler/tree/3.x
