Re: [jQuery] jQuery 1.1 by the end of Nov

[Andre Lewis]

I think that when newcomers find JQ, their default experience should pretty inclusive, i.e., definitely Ajax and Effects. That way, people won't be frustrated by the "I saw it in the API but can't get it to work" factor, and will be more likely to continue on to discover more jQuery goodness.

How about something like this for the download page. Offer the two ends of the spectrum, and awareness that jQuery scales up and down. I'm making the specifics up, but you get the idea:

== Getting Started? ==
Download jQuery Full Version, includes Ajax, Effects, etc . . . Size: 21K. You can always remove components you don't need later to make the _javascript_ smaller!

== Need a lightweight, ninja-fast DOM and Events toolkit? ==
Download jQuery Core. Size: 10K

== Need something more or less?  ==
jQuery scales up and down with your needs. You can selectively add or remove components (Form Serializer, etc.), and leverage a thriving plugin community. Learn more here.
