  Description     : Node.js module to detect expensive regular expressions 

 Node.js module to detect possibly catastrophic, exponential-time regular
 expressions by limiting the star height (the maximum nesting depth of stars
 appearing in that expression) to 1.
 .
 Node.js is an event-based server-side JavaScript engine.

This is required to update node-to-regex to version 3.0.2,
which in turn is required to update node-micromatch to 3.1.10:
https://salsa.debian.org/js-team/node-micromatch/wikis/home/edit
which in turn is required to update node-liftoff to 2.5.0:
https://salsa.debian.org/js-team/node-liftoff/wikis/home

My intention is to maintain it within the JavaScript maintainers team.

The repo will be on salsa:
