Hi all!

This is Leo (from Italy), a long time Ubuntu/Debian contributor.

I have recently worked with nodejs and developed an interface for Deb-o-Matic.
I found it easy to learn and (thanks to npm) a really complete framework.

Anyway ... while I was starting to use some node_module locally I
figured out how many of them are not still packaged for debian.
So, I would like to give you a hand (if you need).

For this I started to develop a script `npm2deb`[0] (python) which get
information about module from npm and write down a base for the
debian/* files automatically.

It seems work fine (at least with simple modules, like node-bytes or similiar).

Would you like test it and give me a feedback ?

All the best,

Leo.
