Bower lowercase "jquery" name now owned by the official jQuery repo

[olivierphi]

Hi!

Because of this update, I haven't been able to install this shim component of Jquery, even with the lowercase name "jquery".
I had to update my "bower.json" file with this
"jquery": "components/jquery#2.0.3"
instead of
jquery": "~2.0.0"
, then clean my Bower local cache, in order to install your jQuery version.

Have you planned to choose a more explicit Bower name for this "component" version of jQuery, like "component-jquery"? This would avoid this type of issue :-)

We can just stop supporting bower in this repo, right ?

This repo will probably be deleted as soon as the jquery bower.json issues are resolved.

Is jQuery gonna provide composer and component(1) support too ?

The jQuery team will only maintain npm & bower support. If you need support for other package managers it needs to be handled by different repos like this one.
