I think that "JavaScript" is nowadays a trademark of Oracle Corporation 
(formerly was a trademark of Sun, formerly a trademark of Netscape).

Trademarks are not like copyright or patents, and I think there is no 
legal problem using the word "JavaScript", otherwise Mozilla, Google and 
even Microsoft would ban the word from their websites / applications docs.
