Could you be a little more specific on where to find information on
JavaScript's proposed system of type constraints?
The firefox.com developers page
(http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Main_Page) has several links on
JavaScript topics. The most promising one leads to
http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/JavaScript, and, while that page
has info on quite a few different versions of JavaScript, version 2 is
not one of them. Of course, I'm only guessing that JavaScript 2 is
what you might have meant by Javascript:TNG. (I can't find any mention
of TNG or "Next Generation" on either of those pages, either.)

The links under ECMAscript 4, like "Read the tutorial on evolutionary
programming in ES4
<http://www.ecmascript.org/es4/spec/evolutionary-programming-tutorial.pdf>"
In http://www.ecmascript.org/. This paper shows how to add types to an
untyped program as it grows.
