I am aware of this. Rather than sneaking in the code (it is bundled in OpenBoard upstream's Git repo), I'd prefer to ship jquery-i18n-properties it a separate package in Debian. During the Debian 12 release cycle I will need to bring up the topic of many many old and unmaintained Javascript / jQuery dependencies / bundled code portions in OpenBoard. I hope to get OpenBoard upstream to a point that they either take over those Javascript projects and maintain them or that they drop the dependencies. For the meantime, I'll be happy to keep jquery-i18n-properties up-to-date in Debian as pseudo-upstream. (I could also fork the upstream Git repo on Github, but for now, I'd prefer to use the existing Github repo as upstream).
