No, io.js is a fork of joyent/node by many original core contributors. io.js has more es6 support since it's based on a newer version of v8.
Development on joyent/node slowed to a crawl and now the NodeFoundation is begging the io.js developers to return. If things remain separate, joyent/node will probably not progress much more and eventually everyone will view io.js as the "next" version of node.
