The idea seems nice, I'd have to test it out to actually see if it really delivers. One thing that bugs me tho is the tone of the text. It's all "this is the best thing since sliced bread" and "authors surly must be at least demi-gods". This comment in the page's source says it all really: "headjs :: possibly the most important script after jQuery" I'm all for cocky and confident attitude, I just think it has no place in a presentational web page/docs

The presentation is there to convince you to use their script. I think more OSS libraries and software should convey such an attitude; I'm way more inclined to use software when the authors tell me that it's awesome and why.

  Well it's this author's mistake to be so entirely confident when the library is still full of problems: https://github.com/headjs/headjs/issues#list https://github.com/headjs/headjs/issues#list

    Seeing as you opened most of those issues only 5 hours ago, I think you meant to say "the library is full of problems", no?

      If a issue falls in a forest and no one is around to report it, is it a problem?

    hello. I'm the author of headjs. Have to say here that the release date of this tool was supposed to happen much later. yesterday I came back to github on my regular visit and noticed that it had 100 followers! It was OUT. I don't know how. anyway. I now stopped all my other work and start focusing on headjs. the bugs will be fixed. BTW: the loader part of the tool can be used as standalone. Here it is: https://github.com/headjs/headjs/blob/master/src/head.loader.js https://github.com/headjs/headjs/blob/master/src/head.loader... About the tone: maybe yea. maybe not. that's how I feel right now.

  I'd be happy if they just stuck to the 'why'.
