ExtJS has an odd license. Either you pay the current maintainers, the Sencha Company to use it, or you must open-source all related code in your application. This is a show stopper for most companies. jQuery, on the other hand, uses the highly permissive MIT license.

Doesn't javascript automatically meet the requirements of open source? You serve the source to anyone viewing the page.

There's a difference between being able to view the source code and open source, which is defined by licensing.
