or Float32Array and Float64Array

This should also make things even faster.

// Fallback for systems that don't support WebGL 
if (typeof DoubleArray != 'undefined') {
    glMatrixArrayType = DoubleArray;
} else if (typeof Float64Array != 'undefined') {
    glMatrixArrayType = Float64Array;
} else if (typeof FloatArray != 'undefined') {
    glMatrixArrayType = FloatArray
} else if(typeof WebGLFloatArray != 'undefined') {
    glMatrixArrayType = WebGLFloatArray;
} else {
    glMatrixArrayType = Array;
}

Is there any information on when this is going to happen and which it will be 
replaced 
with?

BTW, jeroom: I just noticed on your profile that you're the owner of the EWGL 
Matrices! 
As such, I can't thank you enough for your help on what is essentially your 
"competition!" :) I'm also not at all ashamed to admit that I took a great deal 
of 
inspiration from your library while building this one.

Thanks again!

no problem 

It seems It still is going to take a while(2 months I guess) since they still 
haven't 
agreed on everything in that spec.

Also the WebGLFloatArray is goin to be replaced by either DoubleArray or 
Float64Array 
altough both chromium and minefield already have an implementation of the spec

I helped ewgl-matrices also a little bit by caching the object, that way the 
object overhead was minimized. But he did the great work! And you (Tojiro) did 
an amazing job by combining those libraries and introduce some new great ideas!

That's good to know. Do you have a reference for that? For some reason the 
topic is very difficult to Google.
