3rd Party Scripts

We've started including 3rd party javascript in our common library because, well, we don't like reinventing the wheel. There's some really great stuff happening out there and before we go write a class we've gotten in the habit of looking on the Mootools forums (now moved to google groups) before we start coding.

Just because we haven't included a plugin here doesn't mean we've passed any sort of judgment against it. We only add things to our repository as we need them.

Changes, Forks, and Additions

Whenever possible, we leave the source code alone and just add our standard documentation so that our developers can refer to our docs to use these libraries. If we want to make a small change, we might extend the Class to add it so we don't change the library.

In some cases this isn't really possible as we want to add a lot more changes and using .implement might end up just rewriting a LOT of the library. We don't really encourage you to use our version unless you have very similar needs. You should always go to the original author first if you can (we link to them when we can).
