I'm waiting to see what this really means, but I had news about it some time ago and indeed it was pretty cool even if a bit dangerous and abuse prone. It's good to see, however, that Bea is somehow choosing the open standard/open source (to some extent) way.
This however raises an interesting issue about our Rhino version being heavily out of sync with the current one...
Ciao,
As you can see from the attached message, BEA hasn't actually contributed anything yet. There's nothing in mozilla cvs.

--- Begin Message --- Yes, they contacted me and showed me some early prototypes of their code. I reviewed the code and they're working on updates and will come back with a new set of proposed changes that'll be available for review.
It seems like it could be pretty cool, although I haven't tried to use the features for actually developing useful scripts.
