I’m all for it, but that means getting people who live all over the globe to travel and spend money. I’m reluctant to expect that of people.

Aaron, we are all very grateful to you and the mootools team for all of your hard work. in 2010, maybe we should all consider a get together for the mootools community to celebrate all of the success.

A stackoverflow style rating system for plugins would be awesome. IMHO.

Rather than put another burden on our over-taxed developer group, we’re more interested in giving users of these plugins the ability to share that kind of feedback. Expect some sort of “like/dislike” feedback mechanism in the future.

happy new year Aaron, and mootools developers too.
Mootools is awesome and i hope will be more and more awesome in the future

the Forge is useful too now, but in the future it can gone messy
becouse we will have too many solutions for one problem, and many unproffessional things.
i don’t know, maybe forge should be moderated a lot. or mark things like “recomended”, “unstable”,”trash”

The decision to foster the community instead of alienating them couldn’t have come a moment too soon.

This year was a great one for Moo – the best I could remember since the initial release year.
But it’s nothing compared to where we can go as the community evolves.

Nice update. I love MooTools! :D And I didn’t know about the Forge until you mentioned it. Will definitely have to check it out :)

Aaron, great update! MooTools Forge was a much needed addition to the project; I’ve been slackishly taking my time to update and then contribute a plugin I wrote to the Forge, I really want to see it get bigger in 2010. MooTools Forge goes a long way towards not only having a centralized place to share plugins officially backed by the core devs, but also a collaborative way of improving existing user-contributed plugins. Truly unique and awesome.

your post is simply awesome! It tells everything. Mootools is becoming better and better because of the great community it has. It’s awesome to see ppl on IRC and on the mailing list that really love this project, just like me and you!
Congratulations everybody and happy new year!
