Hi, 2007/3/29, Andy Matthews <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
What's the point. Why not jump on board with jQuery too. Someone of his caliber would have been a great addition to the jQuery team. I suppose it's just an ego thing.
On their website, there are the goals: http://dedchain.dustindiaz.com/ Credits Obviously much credit goes to Yahoo!'s most excellent Yahoo! User Interface library <http://developer.yahoo.com/yui> which is the backbone of DED|Chain as well as Jack Slocum <http://www.jackslocum.com/> for putting together a lean, lightning speed DOM CSS Querying<http://www.jackslocum.com/blog/2007/01/11/domquery-css-selector-basic-xpath-implementation-with-benchmarks/>utility which is the base of all chains for DED|Chain. Lastly, much appreciation <http://www.flickr.com/photos/polvero/426305951/> goes to John Resig's jQuery <http://jquery.com/> for the inspiration of DED|Chain's design. The goals for DED|Chain in all honesty comes down to these three things. They may or may not change, but these were most definitely the original ideas. - Get jQuery users to explore the depth of Y!UI. Perhaps DED|Chain will serve as a good bridge that will bring familiarity to the seasoned jQuery developer. - Get Y!UI Developers to try something new; like jQuery. It is a different (and fun) style of JavaScript development. Hopefully DED|Chain can bridge that same gap and shed new light to the seasoned Y!UI developer. - Targeted at Web Developers. If you build websites on a daily basis, I want this to be the JavaScript library of choice. New and upcoming additions to the library should keep that very thing in mind. Sounds cool. Cheers, Joao
