# (Vague) Jasmine 2.0 Goals/(Guidelines)
1. No globals!
* jasmine library is entirely inside `jasmine` namespace
* globals required for backwards compatibility should be added in `boot.js` (EG, var describe = jasmine.getCurrentEnv().describe lives in boot.js)
1. Don't use properties as getters. Use methods.
* Properties aren't encapsulated -- can be mutated, unsafe.
1. Reporters get data objects (no methods).
* easier to refactor as needed
1. More unit tests - fewer nasty integration tests
## Remaining non-story-able work:
* Make a `TODO` list
### Hard
* Finish killing Globals
* Guidelines:
* New objects can have constructors on `jasmine`
* Top level functions can live on `jasmine`
* Top level (i.e., any `jasmine` property) should only be referenced inside the `Env` constructor
* Spies
* isA functions:
* isArray_ - used in matchers and spies
* isString_
* isDOMNode_
* isA_
* unimplementedMethod_, used by PrettyPrinter
* jasmine.util should be util closure inside of env or something
* argsToArray is used for Spies and matching
* inherit is for how matchers are added/mixed in, reporters, and pretty printers
* formatException is used only inside Env/spec
* htmlEscape is for messages in matchers - should this be HTML at all? Is that * Matchers improvements
* move AddMatchers to Env & global (away from spec)
* make matchers unit-testable
* write doc on how to make a matcher
### Easy
## Other Topics
* Build - can we, should we redo the build and release process AGAIN in order to make it less arcane
* Want to add JSHint to build
* Use a standard JS/Node based concat system instead of custom Ruby?
* Docs
* JsDoc is a pain to host and RubyMine is pretty good at navigating. I say we kill it officially
* Docco has gone over well. Should we annotate all the sources and then have Pages be more complex, having tutorials and annotated source like Backbone? Are we small enough?
