I don't want to be too top heavy on the YUI/Ajax stuff, and we already have
2 days but it is the way the market is going now it seems, so I think it
would be ok.  Could you grab me off list or on IRC (I'm jshirley) to talk
about the details of your article?

Since you are using Ext, and it is somewhat backend-agnostic (works with
jquery, prototype, yui, etc) it would be another good alternative.

And maybe mst can do something w/ dojo to compare. :)
