17kB gzipped for a slider!? Seriously wtf?

I though you were joking. But no.

A widget doing:

    0 ----------[37]------------------ 100

Is 17kb, __gzipped__. Compressed. Archived.

It's 3ko more than the entire front page of Hacker News, including all the content and assets, after zipping.

yep, devigners are out of control :)

What licensing is this under? Maybe I'm blind but I don't see any info on that

MIT says the repo.
