Introducing DED|Chain JavaScript Library

This started off as a plane ride project, then blew up into something much larger. Today I'm proud to announce a JavaScript library I'm calling DED|Chain the Web Developers JavaScript kit (less cruft, more fun). It sits on top of Yahoo! UI, with a bit of jQuery spice. Also a big thanks to Jack Slocum for providing DOMQuery which is the base of all "chains" in DED|Chain. The goals (among other things) are mentioned on the project page which will hopefully give you a clearer understanding of its conception. Please keep in mind that this is the very first beta release which contains no documentation plenty of documentation, however being a big stickler for documentation myself, I can guarantee there will be some API docs finding there way to the website in very short time.

Other than that, feel free to send me feedback personally at dustin [<at>] dustindiaz (dot) com. Your thoughts will be much appreciated.
