    @John: Mozilla's JavaScript documentation is official as they are the developers and maintainers of the JavaScript scripting language. Commented Oct 10, 2010 at 9:31
  • @John: JavaScript is an implementation of the ECMA-262 language specification - ECMAScript - and yes, as BoltClock said, Mozilla (Foundation) is the JavaScript developer: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Javascript (see the sidebar on the right). Commented Oct 10, 2010 at 13:27
  • Wikipedia is a bit misleading about what "JavaScript" is. So JavaScript is Mozilla's ES implementation, OK... But if you're going to say that instead of "javascript is a generic term for ES implementations, including Moz's JavaScript, MS's JScript, etc." then how the heck can you call V8 a "JavaScript Implementation?" Very misleading. Commented Oct 10, 2010 at 18:23
