I knew a guy named Shahar; it's a pleasure to now know the etymology. If it's of any consequence or use, several folks, including me, have managed to deploy Narwhal applications with modules as Ihab and I described them in January on Google App Engine. I'm presently focusing on creating a myriad of browser deployment solutions (inline script, script injection, xhr) x (blocking, async) x (bundled, individual) x (with cache induction, without). I think it would be a big win if we could get portions of these projects packaged for Narwhal. Narwhal comes with "virtualenv" support, a package installer, and a JSON command line tool out of the box, so it's very developer friendly, and if the secure server side components have a module loader that supports the module spec, we could use some modules on both the server and the client. I'm shooting for a Wiki proof of concept using one of our two markup language packages that have been ported so far (wiky or markdown; I presume the former since the latter does not protect against script injection). http://narwhaljs.org/ Kris
