Hi there, sorry to bring this topic up yet again, but I feel that some
time has passed, and that the landscape has changed.

Currently, Prototype is the default option in Rails. While switching
to jQuery is pretty easy, it's not as easy as not having to switch at
all, and this being Rails and all, our expectations in the area of
rock-solid defaults are high. I'd like to bring up some arguments in
favor of switching the default to jQuery.

1. It is my feeling that the vast majority of the Rails community use
jQuery exclusively.

Mine too.


 2. jQuery has a vast community of its own, and a multitude of
plugins.
 2. Yehuda Katz.


I agree, and think that Rails 3 is a good opportunity to offer new
default values for a lot of things, including the default javascript
library.

It probably makes any difference, but +1 anyway...
