It's a great idea, This piece of JS is a dependency for fusionforge
(that's why I'm packaging it). Just let me now what to to do to include it.

Actually I don't install it but I keep it in the pristine tarball. But

Done

I'm waiting for an uptsream author response on how he wants to maintain
this plugin, so I tried to stick on the upstream sources to avoid a fork.

He does'nt seem to care much about this plugin (does not reply to my
mails and no replies to important bug fixes since 2011).

So should I realy overtaking the (little) lib and strip jaquery minify
from tarballl, change fix permissions etc. as an uptream for debian ?

This is a small piece of software and if it'included in jquery-goodies
package this very ok for me
