[openspending-dev] Satellite sites and minimizing

Fri Mar 8 17:37:06 UTC 2013

Hi Nigel,

I like your idea. I wouldn't minify third-party libraries, though, changing
them to use CDN's versions (be it Google or cdnjs.com), only minifying our
files. Have you ever used grunt.js? It might help us automate this process.

Cheers,
Vítor.
