At JavaOne this year, the Nashorn team were also demoing Node.jar, a port of the Node.js APIs which runs on Nashorn.

The talk one of the team members gave [1] on invokeDynamic and their under-the-hood Dynalink [2] library was pretty interesting.

Links to all the Nashorn sessions at JavaOne are available on their blog [3].
