Microsoft to Ship jQuery with Visual Studio

Microsoft has announced they will be shipping the JavaScript jQuery library with Visual Studio. From the jQuery Blog:

We have two pieces of fantastic, albeit serendipitous, news today: Both Microsoft and Nokia are taking the major step of adopting jQuery as part of their official application development platform. Not only will they be using it for their corporate development but they will be providing it as a core piece of their platform for developers to build with.

This is important news for developers because they will now be able to standardize on the jQuery library for all JavaScript development.
