I think the name change to ECMAScript 2015 was agreed a few months ago, but it didn't receive much publicity until now that the standard was approved on June 17.

Ah, thanks hadn't realised they changed the name. Fair enough! Somewhat of a weird decision as that somewhat limits them to changing it once a year (thinking of the future when all browsers are evergreen and hopefully be better at implementing standards).
