JavaScriptCore is available in the SVN repository: http://trac.webkit.org/projects/webkit/browser/trunk/JavaScriptCore 
. Feel free to dive in. WebKit developers are available in #webkit on  
irc.freenode.net.

Some people have asked about E4X in the past, but it hasn't garnered  
much interest in our developer community, nor much use on the web.  
We'll see what happens.
