JQuery 1.4 released
I've been a Prototype user for a few years now. I've always kept an eye on jQuery, but my knowledge of it is incredibly shallow. I have to say, I was shocked when I saw that they added the "proxy" method. This description makes it sound exactly like "bind" method in Prototype. Is that a valid comparison? If so, why did it take so long for this to appear in jQuery? At this point, I don't think I could write a snippet of javascript without relying on that method.
