A few quick notes:
* we should be killing jQuery ui. not upgrading it :)
* progressive enhancement != supporting IE6. We should be doing this
anywhere. Personally I would be fine with giving IE6,7, even 8 and maybe 9
no JavaScript whatsoever and supporting them simply from simply a css
perspective. People can edit and read without JavaScript.
* I think we should be careful when we say support. Does support meaning
any new features we write in JavaScript have to work on these platforms or
does in mean they need to be usable? I'd say the latter. It sounds like the
discussion is around supporting JS..

Hi should we upgrade jquery ui to version 1.10.4.
even though we recently
upgraded to version 1.9.2 we could upgrade to 1.10.4 in Mediawiki 1.25.
The
main difference is it removes internet explorer 6
support which as long
as
internet explorer 6 users can edit and view the
page it wont matter to
them. here is the changelog
jqueryui.com/changelog/1.10.0/
