I cannot add much except that I find that as a hobby programmer, I find it
intellectually stimulating to work with the framework and just by learning
how to do thing the "qooxdoo way", I learn alot about design patterns,
programming models, etc instead of ad-hoc "hackery". 
 
The combination of API Viewer, Demo Browser, and a decent IDE (Eclipse with
Spket plugin) makes coding a pleasant experience.

What I would wish for in the short/medium term (after all, it is Christmas
soon): 

- a more polished website - important for PR purposes (we're competing with
http://www.dojotoolkit.org/, for example)
- a book-like manual (see the discussion on the ML) 
- an integrated "API Viewer/Demo Browser" for contributions

Other than that, I am really happy with the toolkit, support by the devs and
the community.

Three cheers to qooxdoo!
