Take it easy, dude. :) I didn't want to kick anybody's ass. Of course, the core 
developers are the most aware what's missing, I wasn't questioning it either. I 
just offered some help, as a happy user of Qooxdoo, what can I do to help speed 
up the development? Is it wrong?

Treating any constructive criticisms as whine wouldn't bring any good to the 
project. Calm down, would you? ;)

I didn't ask for that. :D

If I have skill to make a library as good as Qooxdoo, I won't use it in the 
first place. I would have been making it by myself. It's because Qooxdoo is so 
good and easy to use, even one who doesn't know much about JS is able to use 
Qooxdoo. And that's great! But nothing is perfect. As a good user, I was trying 
to give some feedbacks. I hope my feedback would be considered by core 
developers to make Qooxdoo even better. I believe the core developers are wise 
enough to response feedbacks without making the users go away (see thron7's 
reply). ;)

Yeah! Let's make Qooxdoo be the best RIA framework! :)
