  Description     : reactive extensions for JavaScript

rxjs is a popular node module (more yhan 12.000.000 weekly downloads)
and a dependency of more than 15.000 node modules.

RxJS is a library for reactive programming using Observables, to make it
easier to compose asynchronous or callback-based code.
This project is a rewrite of Reactive-Extensions/RxJS with better performance,
better modularity, better debuggable call stacks, while staying mostly
backwards compatible, with some breaking changes that reduce the API surface.

This module is needed to upgrade some Debian nodejs modules.

It will be maintained under pkg-js team umbrella.

Cheers,
Xavier
