No worries. If you read through the end of the thread to see what I already posted later on, I clarify [or hope I did] that I was genuinely curious about the worth of further effort on the current Javascript, versus putting that effort into the next generation. Granted, my comment about instead putting work into Tamarin evolution showed my naivete/lack of knowledge of both the limitations of Tamarin, and the efforts behind other Javascript implementations such as the webkit one. Do you think there will be a substantial ongoing role for Javascript 1.5 (or whatever version we are talking about here)? Or is it simply that it is too early to think about "Javascript 2" (ECMAScript 4), given that it isn't even standard yet? Doesn't really matter to me .. I'm on to ES4 regardless. I just stumbled across webkit, and was curious to hear what thinking there was for the future. I really want to see kick-a** implementations of ES4. I have in mind using it on both client and server, in a unified manner similar to Microsoft's Volta, to have a simpler overall web development model than I do currently. I also hope to use global type inference combined with type annotations where necessary, to constrain my use of ES4 to semantics that can be efficiently pre-compiled down to statically bound code, such as Microsoft's CLR. My interest is educational/multilingual uses of interactive multimedia on next generation mobile devices.
