Subject:	[POLL] Dropping support for old SpiderMonkeys

Hi,

as JavaScript.pm development is moving again I'm considering dropping  
support for older SpideyMonkey and focusing on 1.7 and later (the one  
used in FF 2.0).

Instead on having to download and install SM manually I was planning  
on putting up a source release of the SM 1.7 engine on my server and  
add the possibility for Makefile.PL to download and install it.  
Alternatively I can bundle the source with JavaScript.pm. You will  
still however have the possibility to build against your own SM src.  
This way we can better control availability of utf8, threading and  
e4x (and future stuff too).

Does this sound like a good idea?

Thanks
