Bug Description

In Debian, minified javascript are considered either as an obfuscation of the original code, or as a "compiled-in binary" version of them, and therefore minified javascript files are considered non-free.

Moreover, the use of unminified javascript will ease the development on client side. There will be no impact on Horizon performance due to the compress tag of Django.

Alan, how can this be of "importance: low" when both Debian, RedHat and SUSE will consider Horizon as non-free?
