The project that I came to is already using Prototype and Scriptaculous in many pages.
I want to introduce Dojo to this project. I am worried if I may introduce hard to track bugs by having both framework. Will there be namespace collision, event overriding or javascript problems ?
Are there any document that provides guidance or problems that we need to be aware of ?
Thanks

Dojo is careful
Dojo is very careful about not polluting the global namespaces or overriding built-ins. You shouldn't have any problems mixing libraries but sometimes the initial loading order is important.

Prototype DOES conflict with Dojo
We just recently encountered this problem and confirmed the conflict between Prototype and Dojo.
If you include Prototype in the same page as image.Gallery - it fails badly. The problem seems to be related to Prototype's extending base classes. Somehow Dojo A11y logic malfunctions on page load - causing a cascade of javascript errors.
Has anyone else encountered this? Any workarounds?
