JFTR, I think that openLingo should progress as previously forseen, but we
should make sure the flexbility is there that any module can be either Lingo
or ECMAScript, depending on which is most appropriate for the task. For
anyone who is pre-judging one as better than the other, we should bear in
mind that tests people have done on other lists have shown that ECMAScript
is actually quite a bit faster than Lingo in some circumstances. You also
have nice things like regular expressions. However, there are still a couple
of things that don't seem to be quite there yet, so basically it's like
this: given two implementations, one in ECMAScript and one in Lingo, we
simply test to see which is best and use that one.
