 jQuery

-namespaced as ``django.jQuery``. If you want to use jQuery in your own admin
-JavaScript without including a second copy, you can use the ``django.jQuery``
-object on changelist and add/edit views.

 Django provides both uncompressed and 'minified' versions of jQuery, as
 ``jquery.js`` and ``jquery.min.js`` respectively.
