@fat and @douglascrockford, the HN community is now satirizing both of you. It's time for you both to do the right thing; add the semicolon to the bootstrap-dropdown.js code and change JSMin to support the original edge case.


bootstrap was changed to avoid jsmin's bug before the ticket was even filed, and crockford added the missing operator cases in jsmin several days ago.


Surely, that should be add all the semicolons to bootstrap-dropdown.js?


No. Twitter has every right to implement their Bootstrap code as they see fit.

But it is just common courtesy to make small accommodations for people who are having difficulty using the code that Twitter has so generously released as open source.
