A comment on Killing Off Wasabi. Parent comment
According to this link from another response by someone who worked on Wasabi: http://www.tedunangst.com/flak/post/technical-debt-and-tacki...
Some choice quotes:
“Wasabi is 100% backwards-compatible with VBScript.”
and
“It’s fully debuggable in Visual Studio. Breakpoints, variable inspection, single stepping, the whole enchilada. It’s just .NET under the covers.”
So not really a new language per se, sounds more like they just home-brewed some steroids for VBScript.
