I do not think insulting language like "spam" is helpful here. In unstable there are around 3500 packages for perl modules, and even more for python modules. The whole JS ecosystem still being a bit immature is a real problem, but the number of packages itself is not a problem. I am not a fan of all that JS stuff, but I do not see any valid basis for rejecting such packages in general. > Regards, > Eduard. cu Adrian -- "Is there not promise of rain?"

It's not like I don't trust APT guys in finding the right bullet to deal with thousands of trivial packages but do we really have to care about the costs of all that spam littering up our namespace?

I’d rather see a package named node-jonschlinkert-modules with all modules bundled, which would Provides: node-has-values, node-copy-descriptor, … -- Cheers, Andrew
