I just started a new project where we will look into the YUI which is very promising, especially in conjunction with <a href="http://www.jackslocum.com/blog/index.php" rel="nofollow">Jack Slocum's yui-ext library</a>.

In my view you have to pick the framework which best suits the project. Dojo is a big set of files so you need to go all out and use it for everything otherwise the overhead hardly seems worth it. Dojo is going to a 1.0 version this summer (according to the guys at Lotusphere anyway) so I'd wait for then if you haven't already got into it. The APIs will settle down at that point and the documentation should catch up with the code. In the meantime prototype is a nice simple framework that has become a de facto standard so works for smaller projects or one which just require the basic AJAX function calls.

Dojo had alot more flash and bang, but when dploying enterprise applications, we felt that solid documentation would better suit us. We looked at alot of frameworks but YUI came out on top.

You're right it's a little bit undocumented so it's an harder starting but it's really a big framework. I'm starting to develop custom widget. But after all, from this 1000 function and classes only few are for communication and all the other are UI and other utility. So if interested only in AJAX connection pheraps there's no need to learn DOJO I’m using Dojo. You’re right it’s a little bit undocumented so it’s an harder starting but it’s really a big framework.
