Strategy for supporting node versions
See original GitHub issueI was going through the LTS schedule for node. And at time of writing it looks like:
Currently I’m a bit confused on what strategy we should pick. Updating .travis.yml
etc feels a bit random to me atm. Therefore I’d like us to have a clear strategy on which versions we should support and test on.
Here are some alternatives:
EDIT: Poll locked.
With “enough es6 features” I mean at least have support for destructuring (since we currently started using this for levelup@2.0.0
)

@vweevers If we follow what @mcollina suggested, we will still support node 7 on older versions of levelup, so we can safely drop support from some versions as long as we bump major.
