I've mentioned this before, but I own the domain MyJQuery.com. My intent was to use it to address this kind of concern, for one. My goal was to have the site automatically grab the latest versions of jquery and plugins and allow users to group them together into a single "distribution" that they call "My JQuery". When any plugin is updated, their distribution would be updated and they could always grab the latest version of their js file. Or even link directly to it off the server and it would be dynamically assembled each time with the latest pieces. Or, if they wanted to include only specific versions of jquery or plugins, they could specify that to make sure that their components would not be upgraded. This way you would have a single place to get all your different jquery components. Instead of having a small 20k jquery lib, you may have a 60k MyJQuery lib that includes everything you need on a regular basis and stays updated with the latest bug fixes and enhancements. If anyone thinks this is a good idea and wants to develop this kind of functionality, I'd be willing to point or transfer the domain to a site that offers this kind of service. Matt Kruse
