@jeffmo Even if this have been moved, you might want to update the gist to show that this is currently in stage 2, not stage 0. (Or atleast it says stage 2 here, but this lists it as a stage 1 draft...)

*EDIT: it does look like it is indeed in stage 2, according to this list

Accepting

class Whatever{
  someSymbolThatIsAFunction(){
    // yeah they call me a method but I am of the Function type
  }
}

but not

class Whatever{
  someSymbolThatIsNotAFunction = 1;
}

is to violate JS syntax basics.

so are semicolons required after each instance property set using this proposed syntax? otherwise a criticism i have is that the class body is messier and looks too much like any other set of statements of a regular function, and parsing things like *ident (){} is much harder

No, semicolons are not required; they follow normal ASI rules and may come automatically. The grammar contains semicolons, just as it does at the end of normal statements which are also subject to ASI.

Should be updated from "stage 0" in the description of this gist to "stage 2" @jeffmo. Thanks for the information 👌
