Node 4.x minimum version?

What's the minimum version of 4.x that we support? I see that travis has 4.5 set.
node.green show same results 4.0.0 to 4.8.4, if what we have currently works with 4.0.0 would be good to support. Happy to bump requirement to 6.x with next backwards incompatible change
Buffer isn't represented on that table though is it? just the stuff that comes for free from v8 right?
https://nodejs.org/dist/latest-v4.x/docs/api/buffer.html#buffer_class_method_buffer_from_buffer
Added in 4.5.0
It (and other buffer methods) was originally added for 8.x, but was backported
we can use safe-buffer polyfill:
Sounds good. Seems like the target should node 4.2 then, as that's the version in the previous Ubuntu LTS.
4.2 sounds good to me
