Hi,

some additional thoughts about the jQuery rewrite:
We really need to keep the current JavaScript API for some releases so
plugins authors have enough time to upgrade their JavaScript code.
Michal, could you take care of this and not remove the old code that
exposes functionality to plugins and add the parts again that have
already been removed? There should be a plan which files should be
removed but they should not be removed yet.

I'm not sure what we should do with the parts that could be modified by
plugins because they expose a public API but should really be rewritten
to use jQuery. I hope there aren't that many plugins concerned and
probably these plugins should simply be upgraded early enough.

Michal, for the case you shouldn't be able to finish the complete jQuery
rewrite till the deadline could you please create a list of open tasks
so we can see what's left to do? It would be good if you could get so
far that we'll be able to merge the changes and the open tasks don't
affect the usage.

Michael
