You see for a simple task like that we already have a double version to test
to "hack" something with possible conflicts between a single variable
definition?
This is just the beginning ... to underline my point about "strict"
I think at some point we'll have to develop double version o everything, one
for cool browsers, the rest for not cool one.
IE6 will be "officially" there until 2014, we will all try to "unofficially"
avoid its support, but this does not change the fact the day IE6 will be
dead we'll have exactly the same problem with version 7 first, and 8 after
... 2026 is a good date for ES5, isn't it?
Haxe strategy will be the key to create one app, and compile it just to
translate for this or that version.
Sinally, as AS3 demonstrated, it will take minimum 5 years before JavaScript
3 will disappear ... uh no, wait, the paradox is that flash lite, the one
created for mobile devices, used basically AS1 rather than AS3, and AS1 is
basically JavaScript 3rd edition ... how come, wasn't the reason to change
the programming language just performances?
So, imho, somebody is just playing with some interest behind, nothing will
come soon for developers otherwise if we was truly struggling for all these
claimed performances, we would have chosen already the O3D Google plugin to
write down directly C++ code.
But, as far as Google Analytic "told me", nobody was interested in this
entry in my blog, as example:

Regards and sorry for the tedious off topic.
