We serve optimized, obfuscated code to our users and if we get a runtime error we post the stacktrace to the server. This is crucial for ensuring high quality applications. Serving debug code is not really an option. I agree that for debug mode you don't need to be able to get the caller but if you are debugging you are usually better of using a debugger anyway. > > On Sep 12, 2008, at 8:08 PM, Brendan Eich <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > >> Great -- good to have library authors / maintainers on this list. >> >> I hold no brief for callee.
