Hello,

The transpiler is growing to a more mature compiler with every release.
There are 2 major 'modern' language features missing: Attributes and Generics
(implying operator overloading).

However, the transpiler by itself is not enough. A bigger ecosystem is desirable.
To make pas2js a success story, we need some help to make it grow and spread
the word.

Currently, there are essentially 2 people working on this in a concerted effort. 
I am aware of some efforts to make widgetsets, but those are long-term goals.
Short term, there are also plenty of small things that can be done to
improve pas2js...

We made a page with some ideas:
http://wiki.freepascal.org/Pas2js_How_to_contribute

Every contribution is welcome: examples, or even just a mention on the wiki
pages of what you have achieved with Pas2js !

Also: if you have wishes, please let us know or better yet: include them on the
above wiki page...

Michael.
