Tamarin:Plans

Shared work items

Several projects host Tamarin or want to, including at least: Flash, ActionMonkey, Adobe AIR, ExtendScript, and ScreamingMonkey. Multiple teams have interest in the following high-level tasks. (The names are tentative; these people have been nominated, some in absentia.)

• Benchmark development. (Dan Schaffer, Ed Smith, John Resig, Moh Haghighat)

• Tracing viability. (Adobe)

• Memory management. (Tommy Reilly, Jason Evans)

• Interpreter speed. (Steven Johnson. Mozilla may put work into this later in the year.)

• ECMAScript 3 compliance. (Dave Mandelin.)

• ECMAScript 4 compliance. (Lots of people, but it's still a bit too early to dig into this.)

• Host object APIs. (Tommy Reilly, Jason Orendorff)

• Platform support - first tier includes x86-32 and ARM; second tier, PPC, x86-64; then Sparc, HP PA/RISC later as needed.

• 64-bit support generally.

• Fixed-width strings. (Michael Daumling)
