An open discussion on the fundamental concepts of dynamic languages, and the implementations that support them. What is a dynamic language? With more and more dynamic features used in static languages (JIT, PIC, etc) does the distinction even matter? What challenges do researchers and developers face as they move from static concepts to dynamic concepts? Are there aspects of "established wisdom" in computer science that don't apply well to dynamic languages?
