Hi,


so let's plan this:

* @types/backbone => node-backbone
* @types/chai => node-chai
* @types/estree => node-estree
* @types/expect.js => node-expect.js
* @types/fs-extra => node-fs-extra
* @types/glob => node-glob
* @types/handlebars => node-handlebars
* @types/jquery => node-jquery (to be grouped)
* @types/jsdom => to be removed (node-jsdom removed with libjs-jquery)
* @types/lodash => node-lodash
* @types/marked => node-marked
* @types/mathjax => node-mathjax
* @types/micromatch => node-micromatch
* @types/minimist => node-minimist
* @types/mocha => node-mocha
* @types/node => typescript or nodejs ?
* @types/requirejs => node-requirejs
* @types/sax => node-sax
* @types/semver => node-semver
* @types/shelljs => node-shelljs
* @types/sinon => node-sinon
* @types/sizzle => libjs-sizzle ?
* @types/underscore => node-underscore

* In these packages, add 'Breaks: node-typescript-types (< 20190219)'

* During a short delay:
  * publish these packages in unstable
  * update dependencies for package that (build-)depends on
    node-typescript and publish them:
    - node-base64url
    - node-css-what
    - node-domhandler
    - node-domutils
    - node-entities
    - node-htmlparser2
    - node-path-to-regexp
    - node-rollup
    - node-xterm
    - node-ytdl-core
    - ipywidgets     (coordination with Debian Python Modules Team)

* After full migration to testing, ROM-RM node-typescript-types

Cheers,
Xavier
