Well, except that Google is just replacing one cross-compiler with another 
- no less JavaScript, Chrome with native Dart support is still very much 
work in progress and it's unlikely that all browsers will gain native 
support the first couple of years. It makes a lot of sense for Google to 
abandon Java over Dart, and call me conservative, but I'm not not willing 
to bet in a community which swings left and right - I (or rather, the 
company I work for) require a minimum amount of standardization and 
official support, in order to guarantee their future livelihood.
