These steps were cool in 2001. But nowadays it's obviously not enough to simply follow these recommendations. Just my 2 cents:
1) What about AJAX best practices?
2) Implementing MVC/Components in JavaScript.
3) Clustering?
4) JavaScript performance, e.g. use Array.join instead of String+String or avoiding Date manipulations in a loop.
5) Unit test the client side.

I do not want to describe the server side best-practices in more detail because its specific to a platform...
