Hi Vaska,


Also, anybody know why the author here did not include Jquery?

While jQuery is certainly as powerful and feature rich as those 
mentioned, it doesn't have the name recognition of a Dojo, YUI or Prototype.


We're doing our best to get the jQuery name out and by the amount of 
traffic we're receiving to the jQuery site, it seems that the word is 
spreading.

I don't think he has anything to do with name. Dr. Dobbs is a
business-centric programming magazine. They focus completely on .NET
and Java. jQuery, generally speaking, doesn't have wide-spread love in
corporate environments (it doesn't look like .NET or Java - whereas
Dojo and YUI generally do).

It's a weird stigma, we probably won't ever pass it, unless we changed
out jQuery worked - but that's fine by me - I like where we are now,
and the users that we attract (designers, developers, small-medium
businesses, a few large businesses). I think it says something about
the library itself, concerning who enjoys its code.

Personally i like the relativaly small community that jQuery has, its easier
to identfiy people and the mailing list doesnt get thousands of emails per
day.

It's funny that you should say that because the jQuery mailing list is
the largest JavaScript mailing list out there (averaging over 100
posts/day). The next closest is Dojo at only about 60 posts/day. You'd
have to combine Dojo, Prototype, and Yahoo UI to get the level of
posts that we do.

I think the below is a great idea. Posts to the list don't always work. As 
an example, I am a web developer with very low JavaScript ability, so a lot 
of what passes by on the list is incomprehensible, ..but  some is sinking in 
by osmosis I think ;).


There are more than a few plugins I'd like to use in a bit of a different 
way but can't change, and likewise my clients, so it would be great to be 
able to post jobs for paid setups/modifications

Hi John and folks,

On the topic of spreading the word, what about some sort of job board
on the jQuery site? Seems to me that it might be a good thing for the
community -- especially if there was some option for clients to allow
code that they sponsor to be released under a reusable license.

Just a thought.
