We first installed Steve's js2-mode, and then some people complained about missing features, then a long thread ensued, which ended up with "let's merge the two" and that this was to be made by switching to espresso and then adding js2's features to it (at least that's my recollection, and Steve was part of that decision). Of course, the "add js2's features" part hasn't materialized. Stefan
