What do you guys recommend for a UI library to use with jQuery. jQuery UI seems to have less widgets compared to other frameworks. I've been playing around lately with the Dojo Toolkit which seems pretty nice so far, and I know that there is always the Yahoo! User Interface, but is there anything else?

I also need to consider licensing, something that can be distributed with Open Source software licensed under the BSD license as well as internal-use software.

Those other "ui libraries" depend on entire other frameworks. If you're using Prototype, choose Scriptaculous. If you're using Dojo, use Dijit.

If you're using jQuery, really, use jQuery UI. You can style the jQuery UI "widgets" a number of different ways; take a look at the Theme Roller Gallery: http://themeroller.com/

What do you mean by lack of maturity and polish?
