Not all of the libraries we were using could be found (in the correct version) in NPM, so had to get creative with some of them. I tried to stick to our current versions as closely as possible, except for some that were easy to update. Thus, most versions are pinned instead of using the usual `^x.y.z` constraint. Here are the detailed notes about where dependencies (might have) changed: * `vis-timeline` should be in the correct version, but the NPM build is a few moments younger, and differs slightly. I hope it's just variable naming or something like that, but comparing minified JS is hard, so I'm not 100% sure. * `jquery.colorPicker` (or rather `really-simple-colorpicker` as the NPM package is called) is newer, because the original version isn't in NPM. Our use of it is relatively isolated, though, and it still seems to work superficially, so I'm relatively confident that this is fine. * `jquery.appear` was never actually in use, so I removed it. * `jquery` itself is updated to `1.8.2`. We were on `1.8.0` which is not in NPM. `1.8.2` is, and that should be fine, but jQuery is one of these candidates that you can never really be sure about since it doesn't follow SemVer perfectly and is used so pervasively, that even checking all our usages against the changelog is basically impossible. * `i18next-xhr-backend` was replaced with (the newest version of) `i18next-http-backend`. The former is deprecated and not in NPM anymore, but the update here is literally a drop in replacement, apparently. * Our Bootstrap version (2.3.2) is so dead it's not even funny. No `2.x` release is in NPM. Fortunately in this case one can just install it directly from their GitHub using the appropriate tag, but this is a bit shady and I want to get rid of it sooner rather than later. Unfortunately upgrading Bootstrap is a rather invasive step. * The Bootstrap slider thing we were using doesn't even have a GitHub. I replaced it with one that does, and which is based on our original one. I used the oldest release they have on GitHub, and seems to be more or less the same, still, but there have been significant code changes between the two. As with the color picker, this is a rather isolated thing, though, so we should be fine? * The RequireJS `text` plugin wasn't used anymore, so I got rid of it. * RequireJS `domReady` only has newer versions in NPM, but they seem to work fine, even though there was a major jump here. * `moment` got a minor update because the version we were using was actually incompatible with our `vis-timeline` version, and our own few uses should still work exactly the same. Note that this is merely a convenience to make `npm install` work. We are using all of these libraries pre-bundled, so `vis-timeline` isn't actually using the version of `moment` we are including, but rather comes with its own. Fixes opencast#138. Fixes opencast#457.

I tried to stick to our current versions as closely as possible, except for some that were easy to update. Thus, most versions are pinned instead of using the usual `^x.y.z` constraint. Only ones where we are using a current version anyway, and where minor updates should be fine use the more traditional constraint.
