I think it's great that there is such an amount of active development in the JS sphere, and I'm sure your framework is fantastic - so don't take this as directed at your framework specifically. That being said...

I am however feeling so overexposed to new libraries and frameworks that I can hardly muster the energy to even look at it. I constantly feel that I'm behind on my homework having to evaluate new libraries and frameworks showing up. Every two weeks, another one shows up with another paradigm shifting approach.

I am getting increasingly apprehensive about committing myself to learning anything new, because in two weeks there's another shiny framework that everyone is proclaiming as the next wunderkind. Sorry about the 6 months spent learning it, but now we're doing something new.

The amount of time where I feel that I am confident and productive with a library or framework is getting shorter and shorter, and more and more of my time learning, I feel is wasted.

Sorry to barf all over your post - like I said, it's nothing specifically with your framework, and it looks very shiny on the surface, but I think I'll just get back to work instead of studying it in greater detail.
