  Description     : JavaScript module for Nginx

This module extends Nginx with configuration directives
that allows one to run a subset of ECMAScript 5.1 (and later
extensions) language.
Its HTTP module features integration with
 - response body filter
 - location content handler
 - http, server, location variables
Its Stream module features integration with
  - the access phase
  - the content phase
  - stream, server variables

I have been using Lua in Nginx for a while, and that's fine,
with an abundant ecosystem. However JavaScript extensions
in Nginx is going to be way more easy, and there is a trend
in that direction.
So I will be using that package, and maintaining it as well
in the nginx team.
