I know it doesn't affect us (users of Aurelia framework), but internally what are the main reasons why you have chosen Babel vs TypeScript? From today's perspective (Babel 6 problems) - do you think it was a wise decision? Today - switch to TypeScript is not an option?

First of all - congrat guys! Gitter is great, but it's bad if you need to search to find something that maybe someone else already asked... So, is there any chance that you open some kind of thread based forum?
