 We are using fast changing libraries in Piwik. We should try to upgrade
 the libraries as often as possible, every few months, so we stay in line
 with the APIs and latest features.

 A new release of jQuery is out — 1.2.6. The headlines on improvements:
     * Event handling: 103%
     * CSS selectors: 13%
     * .offset: 21%
     * .css: 25%

 Lots of other fixes, but the most important, IMHO, is the inclusion of
 Brandon Aaron’s Dimension’s plugin — cross browser support for find
 element dimensions, offsets and positioning — in the jQuery core. Check
 out the release notes here.


 As we are using dimensions and jquery, we definitely should upgrade to
 this new version.

  * http://dev.piwik.org/trac/wiki/HowToTestUI Go through the UI checklist
 after the upgrade to make sure it hasn't broken the ui on ie/ff at least
 Not mandatory, but we could also upgrade the other libraries at the same
 time (calendar, scrollto, thickbox)
