Package: ftp.debian.org
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

currenlty there are around 350 packages provinding JavaScript libraries
and the number is quickly increasing whit the arrival of Node.js
server-side modules.

Most of these packages are now in section "web", but not all of them are
really related to web, or in the more generic "misc" section.

After discussioning this in JavaScript team, we ended up that it would be better 
to request a new section "javascript" where put these packages.

The regex to add existing packages is "[node|libjs]-.*"
