Re: WebAssembly

You realize it's going to work only with a polyfill under JS to start out with, right? And that even the guy who invented JS can't work around the problem of making it work natively without resorting to the polyfill? I'm just all disappoint about this, sorry.

"Native binary" blah blah blah... when will they be able to implement it without a polyfill?

In a few version's time, once they've ironed out the issues and got the standard working, then they can build it in natively.
