Hey Gary

I have no experience writing language parsers so I could be way off
the mark here, but with all due respect I think ECMA compliance is not
just a matter of making something that exists "standard" or standards
compliant.

"A conforming implementation of ECMAScript must provide and support
all the types, values, objects, properties, functions, and program
syntax and semantics described in this specification."

My reading of this is that there is a heap of stuff in ECMAScript that
does not exist in CF at all or directly conflicts with the way things
are done in CF. The Null type, support for finally in try/catch
blocks, date handling, arrays starting at 0, etc..

I'm all for cfscript getting ECMA style operators like ++, <, > and so
on, but I think that this is worlds apart from ECMA compliance.
