Hi All, I wanted to propose adding underscore.js (http://underscorejs.org/) as a dependency for rave javascript. This is a small (4kb) utility belt library for javascript that adds a number of convenience functions without modifying object prototypes. The main advantages would be 1) more succinct code 2) better performance by taking advantage of ecmascript 5 functions like Object.each, .map, .keys, etc when available. Are there any objections to adding underscore as a dependency and relying on it for new features going forward / refactoring older js to take advantage of it? Erin
