I read nearly the entire article, and I am almost convinced that this (recurring) user response is due to a lack of centralized information, easy to use quick start guides , and tutorials.

I do think there are a few things that we can take away from this. Like community involvement, but that is a discussion I'm going to raise at jsfsummit.

Nice timing Dan... I ran into the primary author (Sebastian) on the exhibition floor at Devoxx.  We had a good discussion.  While Sebastian's article does have its critical points and I don't necessarily share some of the conclusions, it is clear that Sebastian has put a lot of effort into his evaluation.  We have been encouraging the community to provide feedback... I am looking at Sebastian's article as some thoughtful, seriously detailed feedback.  Let's make the most of it.

Along those lines...  I asked Sebastian if he would be willing to meet again with some of us from the EG while we are here and he was very open to that.  We can talk over some of the concerns that Sebastian raised and see whether we can translate these into action items for the EG.  (And if we have any concerns over the content of the article - eg. any inaccurate statements - we can certainly raise these - Sebastian is interested in hearing our feedback as well.)
