2 or 3 years ago, Qooxdoo was thriving and increasing it¹s membership but
that¹s all changed the mailing list is constantly going down, contrib
activity has virtually dried up, and it seems that the majority of team
communication goes via private channels (at least, not via the mailing
list).
I don¹t believe that people loose faith in Qooxdoo once they¹ve got to grips
with it, rather that projects end and we don¹t get any new users. IMHO
David¹s right: nobody knows about it.
What happened?

Subject: Re: [qooxdoo-devel] New contrib website
+1000 compared to something like npm... Qooxdoo is definitively the best
JavaScript framework with the oo model but nobody know it and that's a
shame.
