Dr. Dobbs Review of AJAX Toolkits

[Colin Clark]

Hi David,

Thanks for this. It brings up an interesting point that I have been 
thinking about in terms of evaluating AJAX toolkits for FLUID. The 
toolkits are all so new and are changing so fast right now; it's hard to 
evaluate a moving target.

As we start to whittle our list down to a select few over the next week, 
I think it will become increasingly important to also get sense of the 
communities that are developing the toolkits. How active are they? What 
is their road map? What is their accessibility plan? How open and 
available is the community to newcomers? And so on.

So in the end this issue with the Dr. Dobb's report reminds me that it's 
not just a question of who has the better technology right now. Though 
that does count for something. :)

How are things going at the Dojo Conference in New York?
