.es sounds good to me.

Seems like a good fit for EcmaScript. It might even help finally renaming the language, so that tech recruiters confuse it with something else ;)

> so that tech recruiters confuse it with something else

At least if a recruiter starts asking you about your Eczema experience, you can more easily determine that the screening process has gone off the rails.

That would be incorrect though, there are other implementations of the ES specification that are not JavaScript (UnityScript for example).

Although it's a cute suggestion.

WAT? UnityScript is not an implementation of ES AFAICT. It's entirely made up by Unity and has almost nothing in common with JavaScript/EMCAScript
