At the very least, design and maintenance documents for websites should include a strategy for fixing outdated JS libraries in the mix. ---------- This post sent on Sustainable Web Design Community Group 'Old JavaScript Code Threates Web Sustainability' https://www.w3.org/community/sustyweb/2017/03/16/old-javascript-code-threates-web-sustainability/ Learn more about the Sustainable Web Design Community Group: https://www.w3.org/community/sustyweb
