I love LuaJIT, but what it needs right now is some sort of Lua5.3 compatibility. Despite being an excellent piece of tech I think this current state causes some damage to the Lua community because often developers will write code in a Lua5.1-style so it is compatible with both PUC-Lua and LuaJIT interpreters. This has made the adoption to newer Lua versions more difficult.
