Somebody had already added Tushar to the team. Welcome Tushar!

I have pushed all the recent packages uploaded to experimental to 
alioth. I did notice some of them did not have a complete set of tags, 
and I did not check if the repository URI matches the link in 
debian/control. This should be checked before the next upload. But at 
least npm2deb should find the repositories & help avoid duplicated effort.

Cheers,
