Over the past couple of months, Roan Kattouw and I (Trevor Parscal) have been working on a JavaScript and CSS delivery system called ResourceLoader. We're really excited about this technology, and hope others will be too.
Awesome! Now maybe our front-end code won't be absolutely horrible. If only browsers supported some way of debugging minified code sanely . . .

I'll stick to this, since I've never done too much front-end work. :)

Cool! There have been many complaints with the introduction of Vector that Wikimedia sites are taking longer to load, hopefully this will be fixed soon. :)
That's mainly due to JS execution time, isn't it? A resource loader won't speed up page loads much if at all on a hot cache, so this probably won't offset that.
