It's disingenuous to claim that javascript is not a "real" language already. This is like claiming that PHP or VB aren't "real" languages. You may not like it, you may think it's missing crucial, key features, but there is a lot of JS code out there in the wild producing value for businesses and customers and generating billions of dollars in revenue.

Edit: looks like I misread the parent post, my apologies.

Looks like I didn't communicate too well. I wholeheartedly agree that JS is a real language. It's my main language and I've written tens of thousands of lines of the stuff. It has it's quirks but I like coding in it. My "JS as a 'real' language" was a tongue-in-cheek go at those who constantly criticise it for being a toy language. I've edited my original comment.
