In http://trac.habariproject.org/habari/changeset/3488 jquery got
updated and renamed. From what I understand this will break themes and
plugins currently using jquery.js since that file is now replaced with
jquery-1.3.2.min.js.

>From a quick search in -extras around 10 plugins and 15 themes use
jquery.js and probably a lot more themes and plugins not in -extras.

Since jquery isn't always backward compatible it might be good to have
some version names. But imo this shouldn't break current themes and
plugins. That doesn't send a good signal to the community.

I see a couple of different solutions for this, non of them perfect :)

1. When upgrading jquery still keep it named jquery.js and update
themes/plugins if needed.
2. Keep the latest version of jquery as jquery.js but also include
jquery-1.3.2.min.js, jquery-1.2.2.min.js, ... and so on so that the
theme/plugin can use whatever the author wish.
3. Only include jquery-1.3.2.min.js, jquery-1.4.2.min.js, ... and so
on demanding themes/plugins to be updated now but not in the future.

There's more solutions but I'm to lazy to write them all down. But we
should decide something so that ppl writing plugins/themes knows what
to do.
