Noticed Websockets & socket.io references disappeared in MEAP version 8. Really was hoping these would have been expanded upon instead of evaporating. Is it possible these will be covered in a future release? This is a key component of a project I am working on.

One of the examples I intend to cover is a realtime version of Angello featuring Firebase and also how to accomplish the same thing with socket.io. What would you like to see covered around socket.io?
