Description

Apache CloudStack (incubating) is trying to vet all of the bundled libraries and dependencies. One such library is jquery.times [1], which is released under the WTFPL [2], which we'd like to continue using. I suppose that we could perform an end run around this issue and merely re-license the software as that appears to be explicitly permitted, but that seems a bit squirrely.
