Just read about his DomLib - he says that it has all the core functionality
of DynApi2 - what's the road map here - is there a DynApi3 or is DomLib
going to replace this?
I like the fact that DomLib is forgetting backwards compatibility - I'm
going to take a further look at this - maybe I should be targeting my
development towards this.
