I was about to step through the download and build process, just so I could play with it, but on a whim I typed in yum install v8 and here it comes, packaged with fedora 20. Very likely it is available on your distro too. So that saves us a few hours work and hassle, and makes the path all the more plausible. It is a distributed package, with a public api, just like moz24. Perhaps we should all pull it down and write a few hello world programs, just to get a feel for it. Karl Dahlke
