Martin! It is true that users can take initiative to promote the framework, though it is limited as the user community has been limited by the closeness of the core team. I can see some places that users of the community really speak well about qooxdoo. So they do... But I do see, but too little of the core team out there. To be stronger the community needs to be involved in a higher extent. This initiative can only be taken by the core team. As long as the core team doesn't open up the community and formerly invite community users and ask them for specific tasks, nothing will expand. Instead the community will implode even more.
I sent a proposal for change of the qx.io formatting and typos for about 2 weeks ago to make the code more homogenous. I still haven't got a final answer which gives a clear direction, probably because the code is heterogenous at least of this part, or even better been invited to come up with a new standard making it better than it is. I did get an answer saying that "we have done so far..." etc. Not an invitation like: "Wonderful initiative. Can you come up with a proposal we can discuss in the community and if the community thinks it is good changes, we change it." As long as the core team does not involve, stimulate or actively show they want help from the community, users of the community won't be as stupid as we were, on own initiative, come up with proposals... This is the key problem and the major reason why qooxdoo community doesn't grow... in contrary to many other frameworks. I agree with William.
