[Pkg-javascript-devel] Merging node-jquery and libjs-jquery source packages

[Xavier]

Hi all,

I agree to merge them. Following our policy, source package should be named jquery.js.
For now we have:
 * node-jquery => src:node-jquery
 * libjs-jquery => src:jquery

Then if we don't want to upload a new package, I prefer to keep src:jquery as source name

Cheers,
Xavier
