There have been "hints" that why don't I implement JS on top of erlang as well. Would love to try, and some of the problems have been solved in my luerl implementation, but the main problem is time, the lack of it.
Just give it a try and I think even if it's a limited subset of js it's still worth the try. If I can code in js on erlang vm for making distributed apps then it's going to be fun. Plus noobs like me get to know some stuff! Just ignore the naysayers and go for it! :D
