The standard definitely covers syntax and statement construction, but not
object models.  I think that certain aspects, like prototyping and so forth
are either optional or not specified.

Also remember that the "JavaScript" that we know in browsers is actually a
pretty old version of the ECMAScript standard - I believe that ActionScript
represents an implementation of a newer version.

I do know that Adobe has released the ActionScript engine to open-source and
given it to the Mozilla folks.  So they can't be completely incompatible.
