Not really help, but I agree with Alexei, the skeletons desperately need an 
example with a bit more material including a couple more classes e.g. for a 
singleton dialog box and some more interaction here and there. At present the 
only more comprehensive examples are the demos, and as is pointed out at 
http://qooxdoo.org/documentation/user_manual/migration_support they are 
leftovers from earlier days in that their structure doesn't follow the most 
recent standard.

In fact, why not rewrite the demos as a single application with lots of 
separate classes for each demo. It seems to me that you have to do this anyway, 
otherwise if you make each demo a separate qooxdoo application you will end up 
with loads of icon sets (at 5.76 MB each) plus the compiled qooxdoo + demo 
JavaScript file at approx 1 MB. A single application would be not much bigger.

We have previously used wxPython and one good reason for its takeup is the 
excellent demo app which is maintained to show off the latest controls and so 
on. It's your shop window - keep it up to date and make it look as good as you 
can.
