## v1.6, 2017-10-30
* **Important note for package maintainers:**
With the jump to Node 8, some packages published using Meteor 1.6 may no
longer be compatible with older Meteor versions. In order to maintain
compatibility with Meteor 1.5 apps when publishing your package, you can
specify a release version with the meteor publish command:
```
meteor --release 1.5.3 publish
```
If you're interested in taking advantage of Meteor 1.6 while still
supporting older Meteor versions, you can consider publishing for Meteor
1.6 from a new branch, with your package's minor or major version bumped.
You can then continue to publish for Meteor 1.5 from the original branch.
Note that the 1.6 branch version bump is important so that you can continue
publishing patch updates for Meteor 1.5 from the original branch.
