<div style="word-wrap:break-word"><div><br></div><div>So I reckon Javascript is the way to go, at least from a protocol standpoint. Now how we expose this in remote client APIs (Java, Python, etc) needs some thought, but at first glance it would seem as though we won't have a direct mapping to what we do on the embedded side of things. E.g., <a href="http://www.mongodb.org/display/DOCS/MapReduce" target="_blank">http://www.mongodb.org/display/DOCS/MapReduce</a></div>

In this way one could use any of the JSR 223 languages (Jython, JRuby, Groovy, etc).<br></div></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Definitely an interesting thought.
