Hi Daniel,

Thanks for sharing your insight into libjs-modernizr.

Are you talking about gulp? I have almost no experience with it, but I 
saw some packages in Debian using it, I might give a shot hacking with it.

Sure. Would you mind if I import new upstream release to, say, 
'experimental' branch on salsa to try packaging it? Should you have 
anything to contribute, you would be welcome, but I surely get that you 
may not have sufficient time for it.
