gnarf’s opus on animations

• https://github.com/jquery/jquery/pull/731
• gibson042 kicked lotsa bytes out
• Need performance and memory leak sanity check
• Land this week? Still ~+200

Refactor to allow leaving animation/ajax/(others?) out

• Yehuda eliminated an ajax dependency in unit tests
• More work to do there

Land the grunt pull?

• mikesherov and DaveMethvin to figure out Windows issues

Chad Killingsworth’s CCAO changes

https://github.com/dmethvin/jquery/tree/ccao

needs TLC on its build stuff for grunt

Proposed plan of action:

• Leave on a branch for 1.8
• Get unit tests and basic examples working
• Call for community input and help
• Further 1.9 integration contingent on that

What else needs to land?

• timmywil to get Sizzle changes

jQuery.quickReady

• Can we just always ignore state of iframes?
• can’t use window.load since it fires once
• perhaps flip the default state to allow for faster loading?
