This was a forced merge to master because of the sheer massive volume of changes.
You may need to do a fresh clone or use reaction-cli and get a fresh checkout.

This is a compatibility release aimed at updating Reaction with the rapid progress in the Meteor platform. The biggest new feature in Meteor 1.3 is support for ES2015 modules on the client and the server. Upcoming releases will continue a migration to a full ES2015 architecture.

Notes:
We're disabling CI testing with this release, as the Velocity project has been deprecated and now is no longer compatible with Meteor 1.3 CI testing. We are working on a full migration to a new testing strategy to be implemented with the new modular structure refactor of Reaction. The new modular release will be a Meteor 1.4+ compatible release.
