As someone who has worked Neovim and written Neovim plugins, can you comment on how ready it is for "production" use? Could I switch over to it from Vim now, while using all my old Vimscript plugins? Could I right now use it and write plugins that do work on a separate thread from Vim? Is the msgpack API ready and/or documented? etc.

Before we get another rage post[1] I would like to emphasize that using Neovim requires that you keep up with the changes.

I use it full-time on supported platforms (everything except Windows), but breaking changes will require occasional reconfiguration, recompilation, or remorse.
