Moving the MIT and/or GPL attribution from source to own web page

Question

If I have a website which implements a number of open source licensed libraries (For example, jQuery, jQuery UI, along with half a dozen plugins), is it OK to take the copyright notice out of the JavaScript source files, and place it on it's own web page for all to view?

It means that I am still attributing the developers, but I also save sending an extra ~3KB of data per visitor.

Maybe I'm just clutching at straws here.

Thanks.

As long as you say which came from where, I'd definitely say it's fine. The point of distributing the license is that it's accessible, not that it's in a particular place.

You might want to put a notice like "MIT licensed; See http://mysite/licenses for license info" in each file.
