Feature: jQuery support

Comment:
Many SMF mods tend to add jQuery headers to ease their work in the JavaScript department. They would tend to conflict with each other. Add to this various mods that make use of other librairies, and it's become clear that Wedge really needed to have jQuery by default, so as to provide a standard library for all modders.
Wedge offers to load the jQuery library from three different sources: local (if you want to use your own server to provide it and don't mind the extra load on your bandwidth), jQuery CDN or Google CDN. We recommend the Google CDN, which is the most reliable source for providing jQuery. In addition, it always loads fast, and chances are that the library will already be cached on your computer if you tend to visit other websites that also include jQuery from the Google CDN.
We strive to make Wedge compatible with the latest jQuery, but we're currently staying on the 1.5 branch, until they do something about their oversized library. ;)
:edit: They did -- so we're now following the latest branches.
