The upgrade to Drupal 5.8 caused a lot of jquery and javascript related things to no longer function on my site. Namely, here:
http://site.com/outline_designer

Previously made outlines were no longer available in the drop-down list and newly created ones on that page wouldn't register.

This patch here: http://drupal.org/node/281042 helped fix the other problems I encountered with this upgrade, but did nothing to fix broken Outline Designer (5.x-1.3.2, nor though to 5.x-1.5, with jquery_update or without).

Tested a regression back to Drupal 5.7 with new Outline Designer 5.x-1.5 and it worked just as it did.

Er, make that doesn't work with jquery_update either, but then that's another mess altogether with the different versions...

Forget I mentioned jquery_update.

ummm.... I've got a site running jquery update 2.0 and the outline designer version 1.5 w/o issue. Two things:
Did you install v. 2.0 of jquery_update?
Did you install it correctly? ( has like 5 files to replace now instead of just jquery.js)

I've had no problems with the update either the 1.x or 2.x branches and it working nicely with the outline_designer. You might need to kill your cache as well.

Thanks. I tried jquery_update 2.0 and it was still the same. I have to keep using the 1.0 version of jquery_update for other reasons, anyway, if at all. Emptied the cache through all these attempts, too.

I wonder if maybe it's the changes happening both with this and organic groups (og) that are at odds.

I think for my purposes, I'll probably just stick with a combo of node_clone and http://site.com/admin/content/book for outline/book templating and carry it through to 6.x.

I'll check this out again another time.

I don't believe that I touch the OG project yet in official releases. I have a dev site that i'm working on with it but nothing production.

i'm closing this only because I haven't experienced any problems with OG and outline designer and jquery_update in self testing. If anyone else has this as an issue please re-open this issue.
