[Pkg-javascript-devel] Bug#792864: RFA: node-minimist -- Argument options parsing for Node.js

[Bas Couwenberg]

Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

I request an adopter for the node-minimist package.

The package description is:
 Minimist is the guts of optimist's argument parser without all the
 fanciful decoration.
 .
 Optimist is a light-weight node.js library for option parsing.
 .
 Node.js is an event-based server-side JavaScript engine.

I packaged it initially because it's part of the OpenLayers 3 dependency
chain. Since it won't be possible to complete the OpenLayers 3 packaging
due to the unsolved bundling of small Node.js packages problem, I'm no
longer interested in the OpenLayers 3 dependencies.

The package is maintained within the JavaScript team, it mostly needs a
new uploader. It is also a dependency of node-optimist.
