Breaks your octane app - be careful

[BryanCrotaz]

With ember-hammertime installed:

Template Compiler Error (TemplateCompiler) in lords-fielder-tool/application/template.hbs

Cannot read property 'start' of undefined

[wmlele]

Same. Application breaks from 3.25.+ onwards.

[jking6884]

Same. Upgraded to 3.26 and getting the same TemplateCompile error

3.24 is affected too

Hi, @rwwagner90
Tagging you as the last person that committed to this repo. Do you know if this repo is still maintained? It'd be great to update dependencies (especially "ember-cli-babel" that breaks the build for ember apps 3.2x+)

@rreckonerr it is my understanding that hammertime has not been needed for years. It was only to remove the delay from touch events, but that has been fixed in mobile browsers for awhile. Is anyone here still experiencing the delays and actually need the package or is it a leftover dependency?

@rwwagner90 Thanks for a quick reply!
It seems like the 300ms delay has been removed in Chrome 32+. https://developers.google.com/web/updates/2013/12/300ms-tap-delay-gone-away
I've removed the ember-hammertime addon already and don't see any downsides yet.
