Hello,
Sorry I don't spend as much time here as I would like.
I have just had a look at v3.1B (r635) and I see that there is now a dependency on googleapis.com for jquery in the admin backend.
Is there any reason why this is loaded from Google, rather than from the website server? I understand the (theoretical) advantages of using Google to serve such libraries, but this is my problem:
I normally use NoScript on Firefox to disable javascript by source URL. This means that I can be selective about what scripts are running in my browser. (This is as much a speed/performance thing as a privacy concern.)
To use essential functionality in GS 3.1 admin, I now have to enable javascript from googleapis.com, which opens up a whole raft of other scripts and web functions that get in my way – translations, fonts, visual effects, for example – and that I really don't want to have.
I can provide my own local solution for this, but thought that a bit of feedback might be of interest. Is there a particular reason for using jQuery from this source?
Thanks.
