Re: JavaScript engines

As I mentioned in the other email, dropping Seed to using GJS as the
"reference" implementation, would essentially consist of changing small
binding semantics, and then dropping around a third of the Seed code base 
which is oriented towards the more complex features. This isn't really
something I'm willing to just do.

It's not clear to me why this would not be considered a bug.

Hopefully Robert will jump in here and say he's willing to treat GJS
as the reference implementation and then everyone can just be happy
with two implementations with the same API on which any app can Just
Work.

Let's wait for Robert to reply before we get too carried away...
