asm.js - Microsoft Edge browser release channel

Are there any references as to if and when Microsoft plans to enable asm.js in Microsoft edge release channel by default?

Currently it can be activated by going to "about:flags" and enabling it. What I want to know is if there are plans to enable it by default.

EDIT/UPDATE:
http://techdows.com/2015/08/asm-js-enabled-by-default-in-microsoft-edge-browser-in-windows-10-build-10532.html
Enabled by default in preview build, but not RTM yet.

Yes, asm.js will be enabled in Microsoft Edge release by default as stated here (most relevant piece copied below). We do not currently have a committed timeline to share but are continuing to work through the process described below. The easiest way to stay up-to-date is to look for it to be on-by-default in our preview Windows Insider builds or follow the status on our public roadmap.

"We are working on fine tuning Chakra’s pipeline for ASM.js support – gathering data to validate if the current design approach performs well for real world asm.js payloads, understanding and addressing outstanding performance, functionality and tooling issues etc. before enabling this feature by default.
