Prototype based OOAfter doing C++ for years, with some Java/C# here and there, I've gotten around to doing some web development and have started playing around with Javascript. With the recent Ajax and "web 2.0" hype, Javascript seems to be getting more attention. I've been curious about Prototype based Object-oriented languages for a little while now, but have never used one extensively as modern, widely-used implementations (except for Javascript) seem to be rather scarce. Slate seems to be still in development though. Here is a LtU discussion that concentrated on memory concerns and here is a paper on Self. What are others thoughts on OOPLs. Is the added flexibility that proponents argue needed to be looked at more? What are the pitfalls and advantages? Do languages like Ruby "fake" it well enough? I'd be particularly interested in the psychological criticism given in this (google cache)paper, as well as this paper.
