We need to be careful about adding further JavaScript dependencies.
JSCalendar was abandoned. The CalendarDateSelect project seems to have
lost steam.
I guess that is the risk of relying on libraries that only have a single
developer.
This is how most of the very good quality software is - with only one
main developer
that does most of the work and keeps the "vision".
When the team is big, the software is bloated too, and just plain
mediocre :). Of course that this is a an over-generalization from my
side, but just way too many open source projects fit in this scenario :).
Looking further into Nicedit today, it seems to have the same problem in
that there is only a single developer on the project.
Furthermore I'm
not even sure its a true open source project.
It has a MIT license.
At least I could not find
the source repository on the site.
It's here:
http://svn.nicedit.com/trunk
Come to think of it, perhaps Nicedit isn't a viable replacement for YUI
at this stage.
An alternative might be Xinha[1] which is used by Apache Roller.
I'm not sure if Roller is the best example :).
