That is not news. <URL: https://groups.google.com/group/comp.lang.javascript/browse_frm/thread/d084d2109f7b4ec7/e798d5c2bf041b0b?hl=en&lnk=gst&q=the+good+parts#e798d5c2bf041b0b > I have great respect for Douglas. While he is extremely knowledgable about javascript and computing, his greatest talent is not as a gun programmer. His forte seems to be great vision and forward thinking - thank heavens he intervened to deliver us ES 5. -- Rob -- To view archived discussions from the original JSMentors Mailman list: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ To search via a non-Google archive, visit here: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [email protected]
