Yep! See, part of my concern is that it seems that the other libraries 
get a ton more exposure than jQuery does so when someone creates a new 
whiz-bang page using moo or Prototype, it gives a ton of press to those 
libraries even though in many cases, jQuery has had those features for 
some time. So I think its important to empathize, in some tangible 
fashion, these capabilities especially to new visitors. I think the 
folks at Scriptaculous have done a really good job of this with their 
new site.

Going along your comments, I think you're right that we need to clearly 
delineate whats already built-in to jQuery, what can be enhanced via a 
plugin, and what should be added to some best practices/demo page so 
that we're not constantly reinventing the wheel. I would just hate for 
someone to come by and say, "Well, jQuery doesn't seem to have this 
animation capability that I saw on Ajaxian" simply because its not 
obvious to them from what they see on the site.
