I don't have any technical problem with NodeJS.

My problem with NodeJS is that it practically stopped the progress on the CommonJS discussion group, by moving the attention from important issues like a standard library, module transport, etc to non-issues like async. What a pitty...




async is the main reason to use NodeJS, and it supports the older module spec. I'd rather no standard library than a sub-par one.


Ah, yes. You called it a toy because toys are known for disrupting the progress of other projects? That's what toys do, I suppose?

You're backpedaling. If you're going to rant, own it. Otherwise don't rant.
