Does EasySocial load its own version of JQuery?

Hi There,

I'm developing a Joomla template from scratch and just noticing the head when in EasySocial Dashboard view or any ES Views. Regardless where I call JHtml::_('jquery.framework'); to load jQuery, ES foundry/config scripts will be loaded first before jQuery. And strange, same thing with other plugins like JCE Editor's.

I thought Joomla 3.3.6 would load jQuery first before any other script loads. Any tip?

Thanks,

Jackson
