Minutes (Notes) of the meeting of jQuery
Location: #jquery-meeting on Freenode
Attending: DaveMethvin, gnarf, timmywil, mikesherov
Time: Noon ET

Official Agenda:

jQuery 1.8.3 – Today!

• Last call for patches, but I’d prefer none more patched

http://bugs.jquery.com/ticket/12801

• Already sizzle issue, ticket closed

http://bugs.jquery.com/ticket/11290

• Should we allow leading whitespace in $(”   <tag ..>”) detection?
• I’m leaning NO
• If it’s not a literal string, user should sanitize–or better, use $.parseHTML

Create $.select()? Could we just document the Sizzle entry point?

Mergatron status?

Speed tests

Dave will ping recent new contribs and see if they want to grab unassigned tix
