I used the ExtJS framework (of Sencha) back in 2007 around the time Project Flair (now Lively) was announced. It is well designed but does not have the same vision as Lively: direct manipulation and vectors. ExtJS abruptly changed their license in 2008 which led to some revolt. A couple of weeks ago ExtJS renamed themselves to Sencha and also brought in the RaphaelJS SVG framework and a touch framework.
Many of the subscribers on this mailing list have more of a background focusing on Smalltalk and Squeak than with web development. So I do think it's beneficial that we increase awareness and discuss what already exists out there in web toolkit land.
