    For relational data, would a Model represent a row and a Collection represent a result set? I usually think of an MVC app as having a single model representing a schema. It sounds like Backbone is different.

    Can the JavaScript elite please get together and make a decision on Backbone.Events vs. EventEmitter vs. EventTarget?

    Also, I recommend everyone read TJ Holowaychuck's latest blog post[1] and lets start distributing these types of things as components instead of "frameworks".
