I'm very interested in digging into Dojo though - anyways, perhaps I can pick your brain a bit when I see you :-) > Sanjay B: Would be great if you can take up jQuery, since so many > people seem interested. > Since people have mentioned an interest in jquery - I can do a quick demo - again, I could go on for hours;) - but I think a basic intro into the selector syntax, basic animations, one ajax example should not take much time .. I can probably keep it down to 15 minutes, if that seems okay? I can be flexible though . >> Hope you will be able to cover above in an hour?

Hope this can fit into the LUG meeting, else I would still be interested in attending / helping organize(?) a more luxurious javascript session if there isn't time for it here and you're still up for doing it :-) Looking forward and thanks a lot!
