YUI, jQuery, MooTools, etc are not frameworks in my opinion. Those are libraries to essentially normalize DOM implementations and make certain tasks when working with the DOM easier, like DOM traversal. A framework to me is essentially code to help organize your application and provide it an architecture that is easy to maintain and work on in a team. Just wanted to clear up the terminology being used.
