How to add the Node.js foundation npm account to existing npm modules?

[joyeecheung]

Hi, the following projects have been moved into the foundation recently, following nodejs/TSC#406 :

• branch-diff
• changelog-maker
• commit-stream
• core-validate-commit

IIRC, npm packages transferred into the foundation should add the foundation account to the npm collaborator list as a safety net, but I can't find a document for this. This repo seems to be the right place to ask, anyone knows what needs to be done to make it happen? Thanks.

to add the foundation as a collaborator, a current collaborator on the package has to add the foundation by their user name using either the npm CLI or the npm website. if anyone needs help with that, lemme know!

the foundation might consider creating a node organization! they are free for public packages. lemme know if you are interested in that as well!

We did discuss creating an org at one point but in the end we decided just stick with how we are using the single user. Possible we should revisit at some time.

@joyeecheung as @ashleygwilliams mentions it is the same as adding any other user.

@rvagg @evanlucas Can you add nodejs-foundation to the collaborator list of the packages in OP? Thanks!

$ npm owner add nodejs-foundation changelog-maker && npm owner add nodejs-foundation branch-diff && npm owner add nodejs-foundation commit-stream && npm owner add nodejs-foundation make-node-meeting && npm owner add nodejs-foundation node-meeting-agenda
+ nodejs-foundation (changelog-maker)
+ nodejs-foundation (branch-diff)
+ nodejs-foundation (commit-stream)
+ nodejs-foundation (make-node-meeting)
+ nodejs-foundation (node-meeting-agenda)

done
