Adrian A. commented on CLK-529:
-------------------------------

> I don't see a reason for pushing this change as this stage.
There are a few reasons IMHO:
1. make place for jQuery components
2. prototype libraries need updates too, so those components will be modified anyway (why not do the migration Malcolm proposed with this way?).
3. reduce confusion and make Click more predictable - I'm always asked about jQuery, and what components don't work with it. Having prototype clearly separated into a package makes all questions obsolete. The same is true for mooTools and other ones.
4. users will also see that we don't favor the one over the other JS framework since each one is in it's own separate package
5. as Malcolm mentioned, we can't have the results right away, but need two major releases (2.2 deprecated, 2.3 removed), so we need to do it now to have the results maybe in a year.

> Refactor the Prototype base Click controls to a separate package org.apache.click.extras.prototype.
> This would allow a nice separation and easy integration of other javascript frameworks too.
> It would be also much easier for the users, since there also might be duplicate components made with other javascript frameworks too.
