I'm happy to report that late last night we pushed out a tonne of new fixes for various issues within the system, many of which should make our Internet Explorer users happy. We also completed the roll-out of a big Javascript upgrade, from jQuery 1.2.3 to 1.2.6 and jQuery UI 1.0 to 1.5.1, both of which should yield noticeable improvements in stability as well as speed. As an example fo the speed improvements, the release notes for this update to jQuery stated among many other speed improvements that "Events are 103% faster" -- not just a few percent, but over 100% faster. Nice!
We also just finished moving the Dojo source code onto github.com, which is really an amazingly new service, and to using Capistrano to improve the reliability of our updates to the site from now on. I have to say it feels really good to have these updates in place now, since that means a more reliable Dojo for everyone, and faster development of new features as well.
