I know that Windows 10 IoT core already has Chakra, but in terms of getting node working, I'd suspect there are a lot of binary modules in play... so I would think the question becomes, why not just get node proper (V8 and all) working, and signed?
And for that matter, how will this work in tandem with the number of existing IoT libraries already in use from npm.
and I'm sure there are no incompatibilities when one swaps out v8. and I'm sure this core works under Mac and Linux as well. You know, because the web is supposed to be a ubiquitous platform?
otherwise, how is this not just more Embrace/Extend/Extinguish?

Maybe they could throw some developers at making gyp native javascript?

Oh wow, the docs are waaaaaay more useful to embedders than V8: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn249536%28v=vs.94%...
MSDN continues to be a good friend to developers.
