Hi,
(Sorry it's been so long, been away doing server side coding).

I agree with what most peopl have said, but wanted to comment on 
something possibly unique. When I find a bug or quirk in the framework, 
or I want to know how something works internally so I can tweak it, I 
just look at the source code. There has been many times when I've been 
going through other frameworks and have been shocked at some of the 
source code. Several TODO comments, comments saying that this line of 
code won't work under a certain condition, really bad programming 
habbits, seriously obvios bugs etc... And quite often in comercial 
frameworks!!

Whilst browsing the qooxdoo source code, I have to be honest and say 
that there has been a few times I haven't seen what I like, but then 
that is expected, I'm a picky perfectionist (Well try to be)! But a lot 
of the time I am impressed. I have actually said "awesome" out load a 
few times when I've realised something ;) Out of all of the frameworks I 
have source code for qooxdoo is deffinately the best to follow, it seems 
well written, thought out, complete, maintained well and it is easy to 
read. This has helped us greatly! There are a few things that we've 
tweaked in qooxdoo, knowing what we want it's been so easy to go through 
the source code, follow a locially chain, find the right class and then 
create a patch to do the job.


Keep it up!
Matt

P.S. The same actually applies for the toolchain. I've found a few 
generator bugs in the past but have usually been able to look at the 
scripts and fix it within minutes, and I've never even written a python 
script! Signs of a deffinately well thought out framework!
