*What:* Can NodeJS apps be distributed as binary? ie. you compile the .js 
app via V8 into its native binary, and distribute the binary to our 
clients? ... or is minifying the code all you can do?

*Why:* We build serverside applications in NodeJS for clients, that have 
often to be hosted on the client's servers. Distributing source code means 
clients can easily steal our solution and stop paying licensing fees. This 
opens up the possibility of easy reverse-engineering or reuse of our apps 
without our awareness.
