I'm glad you think it's a cool move. We're pretty excited about it. Node.js is 
really growing into a solid community, and it's a very fast JavaScript engine. 
Should be a good match for Kettle.

For now, I think we'll probably stick with our Ant scripts, just because we 
have them and they work well enough. In the long run, I'd like to take the 
JavaScript-based dependency management code we've got for Infusion custom 
builds and bring it out of the Ant world into a Node-based environment to keep 
things simple and reduce the number of tools a user has to install.

If there is, I haven't heard about it yet. I'll keep an eye for it. Let me know 
if you hear anything yourself.

Hope you're well,

Colin
