Do you guys think it would be possible
to have something like an ECMALua (like
ECMAScript)? Maybe with an available
standard it would be easier to have Lua
in many applications. (My dream is to
be able to use Lua instead of Javascript
in web pages. Maybe "ECMALua" would be
a step in that direction.)
My 2 cents... Lua is a little corner of unspoilt paradise. I hate
to think what would happen if everyone is invited to the party.
:-) There is no need to attempt world domination by way of
pandering to 1001 standards-setting bodies. I'd prefer recognition
of the language by technical merit.
Lua is already in a whole lot of applications. But Lua cannot win
all the time, because many parties will defend their own choice of
scripting language religiously. Try swaying the mind of a Python
evangelist... :-) Whatever, any language is good as long as it
gets the job gets done.
One client-side scripting language for HTML is quite enough for
me. Do we really need another one? :-)
