exactly, this has nothing to do with the LF and everything to do with the NodeJS community being OK with a for-profit startup owning their registry... the registry should be community owned and funded similar to the way say the LF runs LetsEncrypt.org as a community resource

You realize that LF is only a minor partner in LetsEncrypt, right? The major partners are EFF, Mozilla, OVH, Akamai and Cisco (and Cisco being involved is a very good reason to stay the hell away from it).

No big fan of Cisco but unless someone else will chime in and explain why this is a big deal when it comes to LetsEncrypt I think this is a bit over the top.

To be honest, i don't know if it's practical for something like this to be community funded. Ideally there would be a committee from multiple companies who have interest that can contribute. Node.js has a board for example.
