[FLOW3-general] Rumours of Phoenix dropping ExtJS?

[Regine Rosewich]

This discussion gets more and more fascinating and I'm really curios how it
will end. I feel that that even with powerful frameworks like ExtJs,
Sproutcore, Aloha or what else, the problem of the diverging needs of a good
CMS Backend(Productivity, Productivity, Productivity) and a comparable good
CMS Frontend (Modernity, Richness, Dynamic, Speed, Design) cannot be solved
with one single client(Javascript)-Framework. The truth will be the
intelligent combination of multiple solutions - that most of these can very
well coexist and can be packaged according to the needs of the programmer
(cherrypicking) shows that the developers of those frameworks do think in
the same direction - and intelligent loading approaches.

Not to forget the rule that success at the start (Sproutcore is only being
used for a bit more than two months) does not protect from the "worst still
to come".
