Indeed Carlos, It's very important to choose an open source framework for the client side. For the server side it's also a better choice, however if you don't have any more updates it's protected in a black box environment. On the client side it always depends on the user OS, browser, etc .. that we don't control.
A community framework it's not dependent on a company's decisions and being open source allows perpetual the framework support (of course that this depends on the community).
