Thinwire is an excellent framework, great community and improving every day. Maybe he should get his fact right, many ways to not have to specify specify position and calculate height and width of every widget..

With so blatant error I would dismiss the whole article.

@mhr:

But he doesn’t condemn neonazis. Pretty well neutralizes any potential support from Semitic ol’ me.

Dietrich, it took me a whole day to answer on this.
- ES4 is the only spark that we have on JS. I like the heated discussion, and it will surely yield results.
- GMail2 is a direct result of user-centric and marketing-driven development. Every company that tries to serve first and do the basics later suffers that fate.
- Both jQuery and mooTools are great ;-)
- the real Ajax turkey is that even Million$ companies donÂ´t seem to have the money to really dig into JS. googleWhatever is the best sample for it. All I see is eye candy, but no substance.
My $0.02 of course.
Cheers, Frankie
