Where have you been hiding? There's been a virtual explosion in the number of languages that compile down to JS[1] in just the past 1-2 years, and TypeScript is probably the youngest of them all. CoffeeScript[2] is another big one, I believe it's much more Ruby-like. There's even 7 projects involving Haskell.

2. http://coffeescript.org/

Well I'm a Ruby guy so I'm definitely aware of Coffeescript, but mostly I'm just not starting a lot of greenfield projects these days :(
