  Girocco uses MooTools, and I also used it in an old private branch
of gitweb. I have had pretty good experience with it. But since I wasn't
able to find anyone to maintain Girocco's gitweb (or even keep it in
sync with upstream) and the patch flow to core git has dried up, it's
probably not too relevant argument. :-)

Thanks.  The information about MooTools is certain helpful.

Do you remember why did you choose MooTools from other existing JavaScript
frameworks, including more popular jQuery?

  Unfortunately, it was few years back so I don't remember clearly
anymore - it certainly was not a very educated guess, however, since I'm
not really a JavaScript hacker. Possibly I just stumbled on a nicer
guide for MooTools than jQuery at that time. By now, it's quite possible
that jQuery is a friendlier alternative.
