The YUI Compressor is a JavaScript compressor which, in addition to removing comments and white-spaces, obfuscates local variables using the smallest possible variable name. This obfuscation is safe, even when using constructs such as 'eval' or 'with' (although the compression is not optimal is those cases) Compared to jsmin, the average savings is around 20%.

YUI Compressor 2.4.4, 2010-10-20
+ Interim 2.4.5 release

YUI Compressor 2.4.3, 2009-12-07
-------------------------------
+ Changed custodian to ci-tools@


YUI Compressor 2.4.2, 2008-11-10
--------------------------------
+ Preserved comments shouldn't prevent obfuscation (Thanks to Matjaz Lipus)


YUI Compressor 2.4.1, 2008-10-28
--------------------------------

+ Use preferentially lower case letters for obfuscated variable names.
  Since JavaScript keywords use lower case letters most often, this
  improves the efficiency of any compression algorithm (gzipping)
  used after minification.
+ Don't append a semi-colon at the end of a JavaScript file when the
  last token is a special comment.

YUI Compressor 2.4, 2008-10-21
------------------------------

+ Allowed the YUI Compressor (which uses a modified version of Rhino)
  to work alongside the original (unmodified) rhino library by using
  a custom class loader.
+ Added all that's necessary to build the YUI Compressor to the
  downloable package.
+ Fixed unnecessary white space after return / typeof when possible.

YUI Compressor 2.3.6, 2008-07-10
--------------------------------

+ Fixed a few minor bugs with the CSS compressor
+ Changed packaging. The original Rhino library, which is used to build the
  YUI Compressor, is not part of the downloadable archive. Too many people
  put it in their classpath, generating a lot of invalid bugs.

YUI Compressor 2.3.5, 2008-02-08
--------------------------------

+ Added a warning when more than one 'var' statement is used in a single scope.
  Automatic coalescence is extremely complicated, and would be unsafe if not
  done properly.

YUI Compressor 2.3.4, 2008-02-07
--------------------------------

+ Expanded the list of reserved words used by isValidIdentifier()

YUI Compressor 2.3.3, 2008-02-04
--------------------------------

+ C-style comments starting with /*! are preserved. This is especially
  useful with comments containing copyright/license information.

YUI Compressor 2.3.2, 2008-02-01
--------------------------------

+ Compressing an empty JS file throws an error [SourceForge bug #1884207]
+ When a string is the first token in a function body, it was removed from
  the compressed file [SourceForge bug #1884314]

YUI Compressor 2.3.1, 2008-01-30
--------------------------------

+ Added test against list of reserved words in method isValidIdentifier.

YUI Compressor 2.3, 2008-01-28
------------------------------

+ Always output a ';' at the end of a minified JavaScript file. This allows
  the concatenating of several minified files without the fear of introducing
  a syntax error.
+ Removed all System.exit() statements. Throw exceptions instead. This is
  especially useful when running the compressor from within a J2EE container.
  [SourceForge bug #1834750]
+ Transform obj["foo"] into obj.foo whenever possible, saving 3 bytes.
+ Transform 'foo': ... into foo: ... whenever possible, saving 2 bytes.
+ Added support for multi-line string literals [SourceForge bug #1871453]
+ Added support for unescaped slashes inside character classes in regexp.
+ Minor performance improvements.
+ Preserve the escaping for an octal representation of a character in string
  literals [SourceForge bug #1844894]

    var a = '\001';

+ CSS: Preserve comments that hide CSS rules from IE Mac:

    /* Hides from IE-mac \*/
    ...
    /* End hide from IE-mac */

+ CSS: Added support for box model hack [SourceForge bug #1862107]

    div.content {
      width:400px;
      voice-family: "\"}\"";
      voice-family:inherit;
      width:300px;
    }

YUI Compressor 2.2.5, 2007-10-09
--------------------------------

+ Remove line terminator after escape in string literals.

YUI Compressor 2.2.4, 2007-10-01
--------------------------------

+ Fixed the way quote characters are counted in string literals
  [SourceForge bug #1804576]
+ Do not use a regular expression using non-greedy matching to remove CSS
  comments (if the comment is more than 800 characters long or so, a stack
  overflow exception gets thrown) Instead, use good old parsing...
+ Fix unnecessary quote escaping in string literals.

YUI Compressor 2.2.3, 2007-09-28
--------------------------------

+ Transform <'+'/script>' completely useless.
+ When converting decimal rgb color values to hexadecimal color values,
  prepend a '0' if the value is less than 16. Otherwise, rgb(0,124,114)
  for instance becomes #07c72, which is incorrect.
+ In CSS files, do not change color names into their corresponding color
  codes (and vice-versa) due to the high potential of introducing bugs
  (rolled back from 2.2.1)

YUI Compressor 2.2.1, 2007-09-25
--------------------------------

+ Optimize quote escaping in JavaScript string literals by using the best quote
  character (' or " depending on the occurrence of this character in the string)
+ Fixed minor bug in the CSS compressor. Colors should not be shortened in
      filter: chroma(color="#FFFFFF");
  Otherwise, it makes the filter break in Internet Explorer.
+ In CSS files, change color names into their corresponding color codes
  (and vice-versa) if that change yields any savings.

YUI Compressor 2.2, 2007-09-18
------------------------------

+ Don't obfuscate function argument named $super if it is the first function
  argument listed. This is to support Prototype 1.6's heretic implementation.
+ Added support for stdin/stdout (see README for more info)
+ Shorten colors from rgb(51,102,153) to #336699 in CSS files.
+ Shorten values from 0.8em to .8em in CSS files.
+ Added support for Internet Explorer's conditional comments in JavaScript
  files. Note that the presence of a conditional comment inside a function
  (i.e. not in the global scope) will reduce the level of compression for the
  same reason  the use of 'eval' or 'with' reduces the level of compression
  (conditional comments, which do not get parsed, may refer to local variables,
  which get obfuscated) In any case, the use of Internet Explorer's conditional
  comment is to be avoided.

YUI Compressor 2.1.2, 2007-08-31
--------------------------------

+ Added --preserve-semi option
+ Modified --line-break option

YUI Compressor 2.1.1, 2007-08-30
--------------------------------

+ Fixed missing space in CSS background:url('foo.png')no-repeat
  causing a background not to appear on Internet Explorer.

YUI Compressor 2.1, 2007-08-29
------------------------------

+ Pass the --line-break option to the CSS compressor.
+ Allow the output file to overwrite the input file (with version 2.0,
  in this case, the output file was always empty)
+ Remove spaces before and after '(' and ')' as in background:url('xxx');
+ Merge (if possible) string literals that are appended in JavaScript files.
  This not only makes the code smaller, it makes the code faster,
  but allows you to maintain some readability in your source code.
+ Handle constructs such as a + ++ b or a + + "1" (in which case the
  space between the operators must be kept!) and other similar cases...
+ Pass ErrorReporter instance to the constructor of class JavaScriptCompressor
  (as suggested by David Bernard for his integration  of the YUI Compressor
  as a maven plugin)

YUI Compressor 2.0, 2007-08-27
------------------------------

+ Switched from Rhino 1.6R6 to Rhino 1.6R7
+ Integrated Isaac Schlueter's CSS compressor.
+ Refactored code to make it easier to use the compressor from a servlet
  environment or another Java app (no need to pass in file names anymore)
+ Output a white-space character after 'throw' only when necessary.
+ Output a white-space character after 'break' and 'continue' when followed
  by a label.

YUI Compressor 1.1, 2007-08-20
------------------------------

+ Java source now in package com.yahoo.platform.yui.compressor
+ Added --line-break option that adds a line feed character after each
  semi-colon character (may help debugging with the MS Script debugger)
+ Added support for missing JavaScript features (get, set, const)
+ Do not show the entire stack trace when the input file cannot be found.
+ Removed the randomization of obfuscated symbols. When compressed code is
  checked in CVS, unchanged files would otherwise end up being versioned.
+ Added web-based front-end to the YUI Compressor as part of the dist package.
+ Added a public entry point that makes the YUI Compressor easy to integrate
  with an already existing Java application.
+ Simplified code by using the same parsing routines used to build the symbol
  tree while looking for undeclared symbols.
+ Count how many times each identifier is used, and display a warning when an
  identifier seems to be unused (code cannot safely be removed automatically)
+ Remove ';' when followed by a '}'. This yields an additional ~1.5% savings
  on yahoo-dom-event.js compared to the JSMin version.
+ Output a white-space character after 'return' and 'case' only when necessary.
