My problem with prototype is, that - at least the way I use it - it creates too much code spread. The - I think - ruby-on-rails driven class approach doesn't seem to fit very well. In that more low level category I think jQuery might be better. Also some of the widgets out there (like leightbox -> dutch version of lightbox working with divs) seems to require an older version of prototype and I have no time to upgrade the leightbox code to a newer version of prototype.
So the fact that dojo is a more managed approach with a lot of bigger vendors backing it might really pay off. Though we really can't know.
Especially for usage in Domino I would really prefer a higher level approach with all sorts of widgets and services (like i18n, which is slow). This creates more compact and better maintainable code.
