> NPM wants to have its cake and eat it too, which is the problem here. The solution is just to say that if you publish a package to NPM you give it the perpetual right to distribute it as-is, and then remove the ability for users to delete their packages at-will. Yes, exactly! Kind of unrelated, but I think it is important to remember
that the left-pad was also ENTIRELY npm team's fault.
You can't just take away a namespace from someone
just because some startup like kik comes knocking. Toyota does not have a right to my domain dot tld slash toyota
The correct answer would have been npm to tell kik to pound sand. npm has never fixed this grave error. https://blog.npmjs.org/post/141577284765/kik-left-pad-and-np... > We stand by our package name dispute resolution policy, and the decision to which it led us. npm deserves to die. |
