Thanks Sebastion.
You make a good point about different UI libraries. And it's a pity that there
are so many different ways to do things in javascript, to the point where many
people are writing their own subclassing utilities. This makes integration and
even IDE use a problem.
In fact I have a project which needs to have code written right away.
I think I will hang back on qooxdoo but I will definately be back in 2008.
Good luck everyone!

Re: [qooxdoo-devel] Starting out with the qooxdoo libraries
To combine multiple UI libraries is normally not a good idea. It starts with
conflicts between event and focus handling does over to style conflicts and
ends with the bloat to load both.
The full build process cannot be used with ExtJs. You are able to compress
files on a single file basis or through the generator. The most cool features
are not easily open for third party libs because the dependency tracking etc.
do not support other class declaration formats than the qooxdoo one for the
moment.
We would be more than happy if you are able to start programming with qooxdoo
only right know. We are currently in the phase of developing the next major
version which should bring a lot of new capabilities regarding themeing. When
your application needs not to be ready in 3 month (qooxdoo 0.8 is planned for
early 2008), I would say to directly use qooxdoo might be the better way.
In fact this question was not asked before. It would be really nice if people
on this list can put stuff they which seems useful to them to the wiki. The
full qooxdoo.org is editable by the community. You can easily put some
paragraphs of this email there, add some of you own content. I think this would
be a great help for other new users.

environment be used to link and minify 3rd party Javascript libs? I am
specifically interested in the Ext library. It is nice, but qooxdoo's build
process is very impressive. If not, what is the preferred method of using third
party libraries? Just by using a <script src> include? I'm sure this has been
asked many times in one way or another but I couldn't find anything in the
archive. Actually, I could do without Ext - If qooxdoo has a cross browser XML
Request implementation - Perhaps someone would like to point me to an example
of how xml requests are performed and processed in a typical qoox application.
