--- Comment #64 from Stephen Gallagher <sgallagh@xxxxxxxxxx> ---
Yes, we definitely want to get Node.js listed as a feature. I'll work on that
next week.

Sergio: Node.js 0.6 and 0.8 will never (and *can* never) appear officially in
Fedora. While they called it "stable" upstream, they are built in such a way
that can never be packaged in Fedora. 0.9.x made SIGNIFICANT changes under the
hood to make it possible to use Node.js with shared libraries instead of
bundled libraries. This is the only way it can be accepted into Fedora.

As such, we will be including the 0.9.x development series in Rawhide which
should hopefully be declared 1.0.0 in time for Fedora 19's release. (Last time
I spoke to upstream, their plan was for this dev branch to become 1.0.x, not
0.10.x)

Right now, 0.9.4 upstream is on a day-to-day slip. It should land any time now
(they expected to land it a few days ago). I'll finish this package as soon as
it appears.

Given that we have an agreement from the other node package to do their rename,
can I get a temporary exception to approve this package with the file-level
conflict, knowing that the proper resolution is coming? Or else I can
temporarily add the Conflicts: explicitly and remove it once the rename lands.

I'd prefer not to wait any longer to land this, as there are multiple other
packages awaiting this one to get in (such as lessjss and ReviewBoard's 1.7
upgrade, which is fairly important because ReviewBoard 1.6 can't run on F18 or
F19 due to the newer Django).
