I am definately one of the "don't break it if it works" type of developer, but I also noticed that the Lua FAQ indicates no roadmap for 5.2 has been established.  Would it be possible to get some (written) assurances regarding the long-term viability and development of Lua?  Can we expect at least five more years of official support for Lua?
