I have been experimenting with using javascript as an application development 
language. So far I've produced a combination of V8 and Qt 3.3. Some of the 
features are:

* An interpreter 'jfx' with a plug-in 'jqt' that introduces Qt 3.3 
* Much of the basic widget set of Qt 3.3
* A simple bundling system that allows scripts and resources such as images
  to be bundled into a single executable
* Two sample applications: an info file reader and a colour chooser

Anti-features are:
* There is only just enough I/O and Posix stuff for the sample applications
* It's only version 0.1

This might be interesting for providing examples of linking V8 with a complex 
C++ system.

It has only been built on Fedora 6 and Ubuntu Hardy Heron.

You can get the source at

I haven't decided yet what future work will be done. I think I would prefer 
ecmascript4 over the existing V8 dialect for sizable applications.
