It could certainly be ported to ActionScript 2, but I don't like AS2  
and I don't do a ton of Flash.  Some of MochiKit.Async was ported  
from code that I had originally written in AS2.  If someone were to  
undertake this task, it would have to be a separate project, because  
I'm not going to be responsible for maintaining a Flash port.

You might want to look at AFLAX, which lets you effectively script  
Flash in JavaScript, which would let you leverage MochiKit (AFLAX  
itself, at least the examples, use MochiKit).

I really wish Macrodobe wouldn't have been so stupid about diverging  
from ECMA.  I also wish someone would write a JavaScript->SWF  
compiler (like MTASC, but without having to use that Java-like syntax).
