Hi Jake, Some key points to make are:
- Learning Center: We strive to provide as much information as possible to get developers up to speed with jQuery. I think we've done a great job of providing some invaluable resources for becoming proficient in the library: http://docs.jquery.com/Tutorials http://www.learningjquery.com/ http://15daysofjquery.com/ - Support: The community is amazing at responding to questions and issues. Couple that with the fact that the project team is reachable at almost all times of the day and it makes for a very solid project infrastructure. Support is offered via the jQuery mailing list or IRC: List: http://docs.jquery.com/Discussion IRC: Server: irc.freenode.net Room: #jquery - Turnaround time for fixes: I've been measuring the turnaround time for emergency fixes and it seems to sit at around 4-8 hours max. - Documentation: The project has 1 main official source of documentation and 2 other enhanced and interactive sites dedicated to allowing easy access to the jQuery API documentation: http://docs.jquery.com/Main_Page http://www.visualjquery.com http://jquery.bassistance.de/api-browser/ - jQuery Successes: The proof is the pudding and an ever-growing list of sites that are using jQuery including MSNBC, Intel, & Intuit. http://docs.jquery.com/Sites_Using_jQuery - Working with Other Libs: We make every effort to play nice with other libraries and we've outlined methods to ensure that you're successful, whether migrating completely to jQuery or enhancing your site by adding jQuery to your toolset: http://docs.jquery.com/Using_jQuery_with_Other_Libraries Rey...
