Hi Don, that's an interesting question and I hope others on the list will add their suggestions.
Assuming you already have at least some experience in object-oriented programming, you should of course be familiar with the basic concepts of JavaScript such as data types, control structures and inheritance. David Flanagan's "JavaScript: The Definitive Guide"[1] covers all that and has a very extensive reference section as well. I also like the "Core JavaScript Reference" and "Core JavaScript Guide" sections of Mozilla's Developer Center[2]. Moving on to the qooxdoo side of things, you'll want to start by working your way through the "Getting Started" section of the manual[3] before moving on to the recent series of tutorials[4]. Whenever you feel the need to dive deeper into a specific topic, consult the corresponding article in the manual.
