Legal or economical Trap?

I found no info about the license. And Google will always be the one who defines what "Dart" is - we should have a chapter on the factual dependency in relation to Google which is - in fact - a company with quite a monopoly in many regards and a huge power to make things like they want them to be. For example making people believe they don't do no evil. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.130.44.115 (talk) 07:44, 12 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

According to http://www.physorg.com/news/2011-10-google-dart-debut-chatter-javascript.html it's released under the BSD license. (Googled "google dart license"). That's a bit second-hand so isn't really good enough for an article reference? However, that was the only obvious reference I could find, so it's better to say nothing at this time until more info emerges. Your comment about monopolies, doing evil etc. isn't directly relevant to the article and would be better suited to the main entry for google itself. When faced with no information or evidence, don't jump to one conclusion or another too soon. Rob Burbidge (talk) 10:55, 12 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Speculation

This article suggests that Dart might resemble Bracha’s language Newspeak, and goes on to speculate that “perhaps Dart will be something like Node.js without the deficiencies of JavaScript . . .”:

The name of the language is 'Dart' not 'Google Dart'. I suggest the page name and title be changed. Donpdonp (talk) 16:17, 10 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

"not" a javascript killer?

According to the register this morning, "It's really not a JavaScript killer, insists author". http://www.theregister.co.uk/2011/10/10/google_previews_dart/ I'm not an expert and this is a new topic, but I pass this on for information.Rob Burbidge (talk) 09:34, 11 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
