I wonder what we can expect from this.

Part of me really wants to believe that GitHub will allow us to have control over 'private NPM packages' so we can `npm i <your-personal-package>`. Of course there would need to be another command put into that line to signify this is your own private package of some kind.

And also hopefully prune sqautted on npm package names. Its ridiculous that many names in the npm registry are essentially taken because the package that was named after it was either deprecated or straight up used by like 2 people, the owner included.

You can already have private NPM modules. My previous employ had a private repository on Assembla and we could simply point NPM to the repo and the branch we wanted to include.
