Yes, YUI is definitely in the top runnings. Somebody else made a comment
that it might be the combination of many frameworks that are then
honed/melded to meet the need of RPGUI. I would be fine with that, though
that is near exactly what ExtJS is - they started with YUI and jQuery (as I
understand it) and came up with a new name along with a much more refined
set of widgets. On that note, I am not an accomplished Javascript coder,
which is why I have favored ExtJS.
Regardless of what I hear back from ExtJS (I emailed them about licensing),
I think it (ExtJS) will still have a home in RPGUI. That's one of the
reasons I didn't name the tool RPG-ExtJS or RPG-Dojo or RPG-Silverlight -
because that would tie it to a particular UI which might not be what a
particular company wants. In the mindset of JSF I am going the route of "UI
Render Kits" which basically means you have an agreed upon spec that the
View and Controller "talk" to and then Render Kits are built around that
spec (i.e. ExtJS, XUL, WML, Flex, Silverlight, custom, etc).

Aaron,
There is always YUI, http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/. I haven't used it,
but
it has some nice widgets. I know there is a developer working on getting
JSF
2 widgets working with YUI. It's also under the BSD license.
