Apparently Javascript is given an explicit exception.

  What about, say, Haskell compiled to JavaScript?

    If it runs on their JavaScript engine outputting to their HTML component, it's fine.

    Why not a Python interpreter written in Ruby running under Silverlight?

  I found it interesting that the exception was not for Javascript, but rather for WebKit in general. "The only exception to the foregoing [ban on downloading and interpreting code] is scripts and code downloaded and run by Apple’s built-in WebKit framework." [from section 3.3.2]. Perhaps Apple wants to keep their options open for other scripting languages in WebKit. I would love to see python and ruby scripting on the client side, personally.

  Would you mind linking me to where it says that? I can't find it.
