Regarding nodejs's success (mentioned this https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5358127 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5358127 when 0.10.0 was released): "I find the strength, openness, and responsiveness of the community (mailing list, freenode IRC chat) to be node's greatest asset. They've done an amazing job in building culture and that should serve node well as it matures." This is something that even the YUI community lacks.
