Google NativeClient

[Julio César Carrascal Urquijo]

"At Google we're always trying to make the web a better platform. That's 
why we're working on Native Client, a technology that aims to give web developers 
access to the full power of the client's CPU while maintaining the browser 
neutrality, OS portability and safety that people expect from web applications."

Looks like Google is *trying* to do ActiveX the right way (For x86 at least). 
It let's you write native code that runs under some kind of supervisor inside 
the browser. I think this proves Walter's point that you can do in native 
code all that you can do with a VM.

How hard would it be to make D run inside NativeClient? Seems like a good 
project for the holidays.
