  Description     : Functional JavaScript transformator

node-regenerator implements a fully-functional source transformation that
takes the syntax for generators/`yield` from ECMAScript 2015 or ES2015
and Asynchronous Iteration proposal and spits out efficient JS-of-today
(ES5) that behaves the same way.

This package will provide new packages:
 * node-regenerator: just /usr/bin/regenerator
 * node-regenerator-preset: Babel preset for easy use of regenerator-transform

It will also replace node-regenerator-runtime and
node-regenerator-transform which ar currently built using npmjs.org as
source but comes from this repository.

Package will be maintained under JS Team umbrella.
