Hi, I'm curious to know what people think about some of the idioms in the JS code you find in shindig. There's an awful lot of stuff like this: shindig.foo = function(){ //... var myFunction = function() { } return {'foo': myFunction, 'bar': function() { return 'bar'; }}; }(); Just search for @member to see the various places. What would people think if we moved to fully defined names for function/method definitions instead? You could still wrap this inside a closure if you wanted local scope: function() { shindig.foo.foo = function() { ... } shindig.foo.bar = function() { ... } }(); -- Paul Lindner -- [email protected] -- linkedin.com/in/plindner
