Merging javascript from various widgets

From Widget Framework 2.0.0 it is possible to merge javascript files from various widgets. Purpose is to reduce lots of javascript file inclusion in the header. Browser has to open HTTP connection for each individual file present in the header which hampers the performance of site. So, merging javascripts files to a single file will improve the performance. Merging is done by maven shade plugin and ant. Condition is that if you have javascript plugin or code for widgets you have to put that in <widget>/src/main/webapp/jscripts directory. You can put as many javascript file in the jscripts directory. The merged javascript file will be created in <war>/resources/js/wf-widget.js.
