(Please CC me on replies, as I'm not subscribed.) Hi, I'm writing to inquire whether there's anyone interested in backporting `nodejs` and related packages from Debian Stretch to Debian Jessie. This would be incredibly useful to us in the [pump.io][1] project as a lot of public (and private) pump nodes run on Debian, and Node.js 0.10 (currently shipped in Jessie) is unideal for a number of reasons. Specifically, our new anti-XSS scrubber is really, really great, but it only runs on Node 4.x and up. Anyone running on Debian's `nodejs` gets the old, more invasive one. Also, if you run the pump server without a reverse proxy (which we recommend) under 0.10, you can't use any TLS cipher suites that provide forward secrecy. I'd take this on myself, but unfortunately I have neither the time nor the technical skills to do so :( So, would anyone be willing to do this? (It's my understanding that requests for backports are OK on this list, but if not, please accept my apologies.) Thanks so much! AJ (aka strugee) [1]: http://pump.io
