I just wanted to say thank you to both you and Sruthi Chandran for all the
work you're doing in packaging all these Node dependencies (as well as
anyone else who is helping with this; I've just been seeing the flood of
ITP messages).  This looks like a bunch of somewhat irritating and tedious
work, and I really appreciate you doing it.  Digging us out of the
unbuildable Javascript hole will be a *huge* benefit for the distribution
going forward and make a bunch of things much easier (such as patching
Javascript for security vulnerabilities, which I expect to be an
increasing issue as the free software ecosystem uses Javascript more and
more heavily).
