Hi devs, I think you did an awesome job with the type definitions. But the definitions are for socket.io version 1.4.4. I just wanted to ask if you have any plans on update it to the latest socket.io version 2.X?

I don't have the time atm so you're free to crack away at it :)

@divillysausages I will do it but could you give me a starting point how to actually do the update?
For example: where do I define the version of Socket.IO that should be used for the typescript definition?

Should be in the tsd file itself (or the naming of the file) if I remember
right. It's been a while since I've looked at it. If you check out the
files you should be able to see, as I had to do this when I did the current
version

Any updates here? I would also like to have an exported Socket to use in TS Classes for reference.

@types/socket.io-client was last updated 4 years ago on version 1.4.32 but latest is 2.3.0 :(
