Just tossing an idea out for debate/discussion for those interested.  For 
those that may be interested, I'm proposing a project called "The Annotated 
JavaScript Project". There may be already something like it, and that's 
fine, don't want to reinvent the wheel, but so far I've only seen 
JavaScripts offered with some install or use instructions, or minimal 
annotations.  I propose that if enough people are interested in it (i.e., 
are interested in participating!), we would set up a repository of 
JavaScripts that are *heavily* annotated: line by line.  There are 
different learning styles, for instance: some people learn best from books, 
others from just jumping in, others from watching someone first, and so 
forth.  I believe that Annotated JavaScripts would be of great help for 
some folks.  Anyway, let me know how you feel about it, and how best it 
should be done (for instance: people present their annotations to the list, 
people discuss those annotations, a peer-reviewed approved version is then 
put up.)

TTFN,
