> nodejs: 0.9.2 -> 0.9.3 upgrade breaks Protocol and Transport requires

>             Project: Thrift
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Node.js - Library
>    Affects Versions: 0.9.3
>            Reporter: Matt Willer
>            Priority: Critical
>   Original Estimate: 10m
>  Remaining Estimate: 10m
>
> Node.js projects that depend on Thrift and need to use a specific transport 
> or protocol must require them in separately, like this:
> {code}
> var thrift = require('thrift'),
>     ThriftTransports = require('thrift/lib/thrift/transport');
> {code}
> The new version (0.9.3) changed that directory structure of the thrift module 
> so that the transport file is now located at 
> thrift/lib/nodejs/lib/thrift/transport.js, which breaks any application that 
> was requiring it at the old path.  This type of breaking change is 
> inappropriate for a patch version, and should be fixed immediately.
> The directory structure change also has the undesirable side effect of 
> including every single language implementation of thrift in the Node.js 
> module, bloating the size of the module with unnecessary files.
> Long-term, the right fix for this is to export useful parts of the library 
> (e.g. transport and protocol constructors) from the main file, but since this 
> is a patch version the immediate fix should be to maintain existing behavior.
