I hope one feature he is adding is that it will return an array of attributes+values if no data is passed to it. > For example: Since the 'form' plugin already does serialization really > really well (much better than jQuery's serialization).

Both sound like excellent ideas. > Let me know if you have any ideas. I don't think it should be modularized too much because then you have two issues: 1. New people don't know what core plugins to get (unless it's clearly explained when/why a plugin may be needed on the site). 2. Claiming a small base install is pointless if there's almost zero functionality. "Our cars get 100MPG! (As long as there are no passengers and no gravity and no friction.)" And lastly... jQuery is great. I tried to do some stuff with MochiKit but was compeletly confused (and the list wasn't very friendly either). Now in a few weeks of experimenting I'm almost familiar with it enough to do whatever I want (doesn't mean everything, just what *I* want).
