upgrade to JQuery 2.x?

[Glen Mazza]

Hi Team, I'm looking at a new JQuery UI date-picker tool for our blog 
entry edit page (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ROL-1991) and am 
thinking that it may be a good time to also upgrade us to JQuery 2.x. 
(http://jquery.com/download/)  We're presently using JQuery 1.4.2, 
mostly for the Media file stuff.  An upgrade would affect bloggers using 
IE7 or IE8 (they would have to use IE9 or Safari/Chrome/Firefox 
instead), but most likely not blog readers who wouldn't be interacting 
with the widgets that we're using the JQuery for.  I think using the 
latest-and-greatest technologies here will help attract committers, 
doing more good for project growth than supporting IE7/IE8 would.

Otherwise, I'll upgrade us to jQuery 1.11.0.
Regards,
Glen
