Many Fixes, Enhancements in Dojo's Release 1.2

Dojo, one of the leading open-source libraries and widget sets for JavaScript programming, released its latest version (1.2) yesterday. Dojo, which is developed by the Dojo Foundation and released under both the BSD License and Academic Free License, is officially integrated with a number of Web development frameworks, such as Django and the Zend Framework, and by vendors such as IBM and Sun Microsystems.



YUI 2.6 Improves Widgets, Accessibility

Yahoo announced yesterday that it was releasing version 2.6 of its popular Yahoo User Interface (YUI) library, a collection of JavaScript objects and functions for client-side Web programming. YUI, distributed under the BSD license, is similar to such open-source JavaScript libraries as jQuery (see related story), Dojo, and Prototype/Scriptaculous. Note that this release is not the same as YUI 3.0, a preview of which was released earlier this year, and which will not be backward compatible with version 2.x.



Microsoft, Nokia Adopt jQuery Library

jQuery, one of the best-known open-source libraries for JavaScript access and manipulation, was tapped earlier this week as Microsoft's choice for JavaScript library. This means that jQuery will be integrated into Microsoft's Visual Studio developer tools, with additional integration into the ASP.NET Ajax framework. This announcement came on the same day as a similar one from Nokia, which announced that jQuery would be integrated into its Web run-time platform. Announcements were made in a variety of locations, including Rey Blango's blog, and posts by Microsoft programmers Scott Guthrie and Scott Hanelsman. The original author of jQuery, John Resig, wrote a blog post that not only announced the news, but described some of the improvements that will come to jQuery as a result, including additional software testing.

It has become an essential tool for Web developers, particularly those who use the modern technique known as Ajax ( asynchronous JavaScript and XML ).



Google's Free Video Libraries for Developers

While Google posted them a few days ago, I've just had a chance to sift through some of the large volumes of video-based presentations from its Google I/O and Developer Day events that the company is now offering via its blog.

Here, below the fold, are some of the better offerings that Google has posted from its recent events held around the world.
