We would gladly accept SquirrelFish patches for any part of ES3.1 that  
is not in conflict with the corresponding part of ES4.

This file has evolved since I last looked at it. We have an older copy
in the Mozilla tree,



and Mozilla's native implementation matches its behavior in most
cases, except where I intentionally diverged (our implementation
always returns strict JSON, and thus won't return strings).

A changelog would really speed my analysis of the new file, since I'm
quite familiar with the old one. Happen to have one?

(Was that a cut? :-P)

It's true, SpiderMonkey won't win any beauty pageants, but it gets  
the job done and people do hack on it. No mature and/or optimized  
engine is all that easy to hack on, and C or C++ is the wrong  
language for implementing interpreters and compilers, if the goal is  
clarity and extensibility. Java is better, SML is much better -- to  
pick non-random examples.

Which reminds me, any thoughts on the RI subset?

Yes, and of course SpiderMonkey.  For no particularly good reason I simply have 
the other two positioned in my mind as perhaps being more (technically) 
approachable for somebody who wanted to plunge into such an effort. I may well 
be misguided in that perception.

Don't forget SpiderMonkey.

There's the ES4 RI as well -- did you have anyone already lined up to
work on the 3.1 subset of it?

It would be great if somebody wanted to work on a proof of concept ES 3.1 
implementation in a open code bases such as such as Webkit or Rhino.

If anybody is interested in volunteering send a not to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Subject: ES 3.1 implementations?

I am putting together feedback on the JSON features proposed for ES
3.1, and I was wondering if there any ES 3.1 implementations
available.

Given the limited scope of the spec, I would expect to see at least
one implementation completed soon if there isn't one. Maybe in Rhino
or something?

There is an implementation in JavaScript at http://json.org/json2.js.
