Details

We should document the representation choices of Narcissus. Specifically:

- representation of values
- representation of control flow
- use of proxies

Not sure if this is better in a comment, a readme, or the wiki. Maybe the latter.

Dave
We should also clarify the commitments to JavaScript language versions. Specifically:

- jsdefs, jslex, jsparse: ES3 + const (i.e., web-portable)
- jsexec: latest SpiderMonkey (i.e., no holds barred)

(This is because the parser has clients, whereas the interpreter is currently only being used by us.)

Dave
Got some momentum going here:

    https://wiki.mozilla.org/Narcissus/Development

Still work-in-progress.
