jQuery 1.12 seems to be the last release of the 1.x branch. What's next ? Should we upgrade to 2.x ? 3.x ?
We can assume that we will upgrade it to something. I don't think we should complicate this conversation by talking about what the next version will be. If we do this right the next upgrade might be not so complicated.
I have a preference for the "upgrade all at once / fix as it breaks" method. With the other method I think we will end up with several versions of jQuery and doc-head-close-*
I realize having several versions of doc-head-close-*.inc is complicated because we have to keep them in sync. Is there another reason to avoid it? It's certainly not something the user will care about.
Moreover, the upgrade path from 1.7 to 1.12 seems not too hard, according to https://jquery.com/upgrade-guide/1.9 and we can use the jQuery Migrate plugin.
I think it would be nice to not add another JS dependency. -- Owen -- Web Developer Athens County Public Libraries http://www.myacpl.org
