Protscript seems like it may be attacking a middle ground that is very small. <a href="http://www.ixedit.com/" target="_blank">http://www.ixedit.com/</a> is a good example of a wizard-style tool for non-coders to add interactions to their html, it could be used to do the sort of thing Protoscript is trying to do, but with nearly zero code knowledge.

I think jQuery and Protoscript are very much similar. From what I understand, Protoscript does not aim to replace jQuery (as it actually is built on it). It does aim to make the interactions more readable in a JSON syntax. I think Bill was asked this question a number of times and here is a blog post on this: <a href="http://looksgoodworkswell.blogspot.com/2007/09/why-protoscript.html" target="_blank">http://looksgoodworkswell.blogspot.com/2007/09/wh...</a> (Why Protoscript).
