And I thought Mootools was finally getting namespacing & a proper module system. :(

I nearly started crafting an email to ask about corporate rates for documentation when I got to the micro-payments bit. I feel extra ridiculous since my team posted an April Fools Facebook app yesterday that uses MooTools. Doh.

To hell with MooJoQueryPrototype what ever. I like Mootools just the way it is! It really does the job perfectly for me. I must say, I sometimes fancy the coding style jQuery offers, but it´s more a gfx-slut-lib for the untalented… It’s all plug and play, which kinda pushes the developer out of the picture. AND I NEED MY MONEY!

Good April Fools… ya really had me … fooled.

What about Y-Ext-Pro-MooJ-Query-Taculous? it would be kind of like the combinor robots in transformers… when they connect there strong and unstoppable… well until OptimusPrimeJS Framework is created

Oh my sweet christ, now this is almost better than the post itself:

"Well er, that sure sucks and big surprise. Chasing the dollar at the expense of the community? I hope that works out for you guys, no-one would begrudge that, but seriously: :|

Time to switch over to jQuery after all, perhaps."

I remember when last year I read that you decided too change mootools’ name… and i wrote a lot of comments with my disagreement and hunger…. this year I use my experience too say: Great Job Mootools… why don’t you build a MooTAculos to be more crosslibrary???
