YUI Modules Explorer is a utility that will scan your YUI application and tell you what modules you should include. Very cool!

As discussed in yesterday's Open Rountable, we'd like to encourage the use of YUIDoc's
@since {version}tag more (docs). However, a pain point is that when you include that tag you don't always know what version of YUI your code will be released with. So, we came up with a solution: include a@SINCE@token as a placeholder, then as part of our release deployment process, we'll replace any instances of@since @SINCE@with@since 3.9.0(for example). -
