I think Harmony is a move in the right direction for moving forward JavaScript (I agree with Crockford) in the browser. I also agree that if AS was to blindly follow suit it would be a mistake as well. Fortunately, I don't see any reason why AS would do such a thing. AS3 has more in common with C# and Java, which is the right way to go for the direction the product line is headed (Flex, etc.). AS2 mirrors JavaScript, which I think was appropriate at the time (inside the Flash IDE). Troy.
