Description
Currently, YUI compressor is used for compressing the various js files into fusionSF-compressed.js
Unfortunately, YUI seems to be no longer in active maintenance (http://www.yuiblog.com/blog/2012/10/16/state-of-yui-compressor/) and lacks support for modern web developer features like source maps (something very useful for "debugging" fusionSF-compressed.js)
We should look for an alternative to YUI compressor. Preferably one that does require node.js, as we don't want to introduce new dependencies if we don't have to.
