I'm having to hold back my desire to upgrade them. :-)

I don't think these require upgrading for 1.0. I have no reason to believe an upgrade will break things - but a good review would be in order - and the libraries aren't that out of date either.

However, IF we'd really like the shiny 1.0 to have shiny latest libraries (which is a worthy goal, I suppose), I will upgrade them on Saturday or Sunday. (Would do sooner, but I'm tied up over the next two days).

In short:
Required? probably not
Doable? yes
Desirable? perhaps

It wouldn't take long. So I leave the final call to the group. What's the consensus?

I guess the question is is there any reason these are required for
1.0.0? Otherwise let's just hold off until needed or we have time to do
it, perhaps at the start of a release cycle.

The upgrade to later Noty and jQuery UI should be fine.

Superfish is probably the problem area - I certainly did a fair amount
of stylistic tweaking in there, so I'd imagine things will get a little
goofy.

If you want to do the former two but hold off on the latter until I can
look at it, that would probably make sense.

Or just hold off on all three, and I can upgrade them and post-fix (but
it will be a week or two before I could)

For CO-1118, I'm looking at updating our library dependencies. There are
a few that are UI related:

Superfish (menus): Current = 1.5.1, Latest = 1.7.6
noty (notifications): Current = 2.0.3, Latest = 2.3.7
jQuery UI: Current 1.10.0 (w/jQuery 1.9.0), Latest = 1.11.4

I took a stab at updating Superfish, but it didn't "just work".
Specifically, the notifications menu doesn't word wrap anymore.

Superfish has several bug fixes and some code refactoring.

Noty seems to be mostly bug fixes.

jQuery has various changes and fixes, but nothing too immediately useful.

So I think the question, mostly for Arlen, is do we want to update all
of these? If so, we'd probably need you to help sort through some of the
bugs that shake out from this.

In the mean time, I'm going to bump CakePHP to 2.7.3.

Thanks,
