It's funny, Richard, because the now-much-ridiculed-and-looked-down-upon 
AS1 actually shares a lot in common with Ruby. All right, everything is 
not an object but at least it is object-based and we have all the 
advantages of AOP, interceptors, etc. or can easily create them. 
Thinking about things, I am at odds with myself as to whether AS should 
be going where AS3 is taking it (much closer to Java) when Java 
programmers are trying to make Java more dynamic and lighter and 
defecting in scores to languages like Ruby.

On that note, why not use Ruby for this new endeavor? I agree that YAPL 
doesn't sound good.
