As discussed in dev chat earlier today, Underscore.js and Backbone.js are tools that will help us improve the quality of our Javascript. Their consistent APIs, verbose documentation, and wide usage make them a particularly good fit for WordPress core and our community.

Now that the minified versions are in core, does this mean we need to add the unminified versions of both scripts to the Sources Repository (linked from http://wordpress.org/download/source/) ?
