                My resposne to http://www.nomorejavascript.com/
              
          
    My comment on http://www.nomorejavascript.com/ was deleted. So much for a fair and balanced discussion.
I think the idea is noble, but the people behind the idea are clearly inept.
One big reason JavaScript will be hard to replace is that it's been through years of battle testing and it's security holes have mostly been patched. You would have to start this process from scratch with a new language, which in itself is a good reason not to bother.
Here are my comments in reponse to their arguments for a new language:

Camel casing is not a language feature. You can use underscores in your variable names if you want.
node.js is not a library, it's a JavaScript runtime.

                Nodejs + LevelDB Talk
              
          
    Intro into level db

https://code.google.com/p/leveldb/

It's a database, it's by google, and is what supports IndexDB in the chrome browser
It's also been used to store data in riak
It lives in your process (a bit like sqlite)
Inspired by Big Table, but designed to work on mobile devices
There is great support for leveldb in the node.js
Node is a great tool for sticking technologies together
