When will ECMAScript v 6 become standard [closed]

Sorry if this has been asked before, but I'm wondering when ECMAScript v 6 will become more than a draft, and become the new standard. Going to the ECMA website (section 262) still shows edition 5.1 as being the latest, which was released in June 2011.

Note: (I plan on doing a talk on ECMA 262 edition 5.1 in the next couple of months and I'm hoping I'm not talking about out-dated material :)
