?? This sentence doesn't make much sense.  I meant to say that
Douglas Crockford was overzealous (which he is, IMO).

Fair enough.  I stand corrected.  I didn't catch that.
The general license, however, is as stated.

To be fair, it's been undergoing *major* revisions lately, making it resemble
JSHint less and less in terms of what it checks for.  Having used it in the
past, functionality wise it's very different.  While it maintains some backwards
compatibility, it has added in new checks, doesn't complain about nearly the number
of things that JSLint complains about (for good reasons).
