You should check out the library again if you haven't recently. Jack has removed most (I believe now all, but I'm not 100% certain) of the dependencies on YUI. Its really more of its own library now. If you click on the Download link on the yui-ext site, you can build your own set of scripts and it will show you all the dependencies. As far as I can tell, it no longer has any outside dependencies. The base yui-ext.js file takes care of all the core functionality. It is 47 Kb though, so not exactly lightweight.
I like that all additional functionality is separated into lightweight libraries though that are designed to let you mix and match to suit the project at hand. I know he's working hard on a couple things right now and his blog has been unusually quiet, so I'm expecting to see a big new release soon, perhaps even a 1.0 version. Anyway, worth checking out if you are interested in well written JS libraries.
