Ah, I see, there are two levels of translation! First from "non-canonical module IDs" to "canonical module IDs", which in this case means from `"./controllers"` to `"a/b/controllers"`, and then another from "canonical module IDs" to URLs. It's confusing since there are two concepts of "base" in play: the current module's "canonical module ID" is used as a "base" when resolving "non-canonical module IDs", and the base URL is used when resolving "canonical module IDs" to URLs. (Sorry for the heavy use of scare-quotes, but I wanted to make it clear I don't know the right names for things and am open to correction.) But, even then, that seems at least somewhat at odds with what Jason said. He implied that `"backbone"` would resolve to the backbone package, and not to the URL `"http://example.com/path/to/base/backbone.js"`. In particular, he contrasted "some other package" (Backbone) with "a module in the same package/project," which to me would be modules under `"http://example.com/path/to/base/"`. I look forward to finding out which part I misunderstood :). _______________________________________________ es-discuss mailing list [email protected] https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/es-discuss
