The mechanics of npm (which requires components not distributed with the = tarball) have always required Sunpoet to repackage it himself. For the = last few versions, the build has increased to about 7 minutes, about = 6:45 of which is npm trying to dial out and failing. As long as Sunpoet = needs to repackage it himself, making it a simple extraction for the = end-user is much cleaner and simpler. # Adam =E2=80=94 Adam Weinberger adamw@adamw.org http://www.adamw.org=
