I am still busy with providing the series of MATE packages in Debian,  
so javascript packaging has become a lower priority at the moment. I  
still would love to see etherpad-lite being a package that is  
available in Debian jessie.

The packages node-socket(|.)io and node-socket(|.)io-client and  
several others are a dependency of etherpad-lite, so I welcome anyone  
who takes over that task. Feel free to change ownership of my ITP(s)  
and go ahead with the work.

With the upstream guy providing options.js, I feel clueless. We could  
use their git commit messages and the npm package as hint for the  
actual upstream version and package a Git snapshot (e.g.  
0.0.5+gitYYYYMMDD~<githash>) or we are more script and package it  
without an upstream version (e.g. as 0+gitYYYYMMDD~<githash>). My  
preference is the first approach.

I have a similar non-reactivity issue with the guy providing  
require-kernel.js [1]. For require-kernel.js, I need upstream to  
provide the exact license text, but my issue report [2] stays  
unanswered. (Maybe a pull request would help in the case of  
require-kernel.js).

Greets,
Mike
