NON jQuery version #11
Description
Hey all, not sure if this repo is still being maintained as there seem to be issues outstanding for quite a while and not much happening on this repo? Matt, do you want to perhaps hand it over to someone who may help maintain the v1 branch at least?
Anyway, thought I'd chip in with another issue (that's more of an improvement in my eyes).
I've removed jQuery dependencies from this lib. Controversial I know but hear me out. Farbtastic is a fantastic colour picker but I've never liked the fact it relied on jQuery (a lib about twice the size of Farbtastic at 70kb+) and also that it loads this remotely, which means you can't use on a PC without a net conn.
So I quickly swapped all the jQuery related items with vanilla JS versions, so now it's lighter and has no external dependencies. In doing this I also removed IE6 support (seriously, does anyone use this, it's 2013 now?).
My fork for this version which I've called v1.4 is at:

A note: I removed the multi picker side of things too as a temporary measure, so anyone that would like to help me put them back in, I'd appreciate that. You can check my commit history on my forked repo to see what I've changed.
