After ten years with no major revision, the European Computer Manufacturers Association (ECMA) general assembly recently approved the ECMA-262 5th edition (ES5) spec as the ECMAScript standard. JavaScript, JScript, and ActionScript are the well-known dialects of ECMAScript.
The spec passed by a vote of 19 to 2, receiving less criticism than the unstandardized 4th edition. Only IBM and Intel voted against the proposal. IBM voted against the spec because of the lack of decimal and Intel didn't have enough time to look over the intellectual property implications. The next step for the ECMA will be to submit the ES5 spec to the International Organization for Standardization (ISO).
