Looks quite good. Very similar to AS3, although it has the type inference of Scala. Nice. Either way something like this needs to exist to produce more robust code when creating large projects in Javascript. Google did this in using Java, but Java is overly restrictive. Being able to mix static (to a compilers checks + self-documentation) & dynamic (e.g. write parsing code more easily) typing is the future. This either/or approach is antithesis of what's good in CS.
