Comment (by zooko):

 For the record, in re-reading this ticket I realized that the thing
 terrell [comment:4 mentioned] seven months ago turns out to be that
 something David-Sarah suggested at the summit on Tuesday has already been
 done by (many) other people: packaging the Javascript libraries as Python
 libraries. Both jquery and protovis are already packaged into Python
 libraries by various people.

 We could potentially make Tahoe-LAFS depend on one of those Python
 packages and remove the copy of the Javascript library from our source
 tree.

 Let's open a new ticket for that.

 Terrell: maybe next time you're pointing out a potentially useful solution
 to our current problem, you could try writing a more detailed explanation
 of how it could apply. Maybe write what the steps would be for our project
 to use it -- something like that. Basically increase your assumption that
 your readers are distracted, ignorant, or lazy and if you don't spell out
 what you mean they will miss the point. :-)
