Bower registration

[desandro]

Hi there! I'm moving discussion from bower/bower#120 (comment) over here. Thanks for looking into adding bower support.

deferred-js is currently registered to iam4x/deferred-js-bower. It is a port of this repo, but I don't feel comfortable switching it over.

1. It's source directory is different from this one, i.e. /deferred.js vs /js/deferred.js
2. This repo is missing a bower.json

I feel the best solution is to register this repo under a different name, like standalone-deferred or even just deferred. This way, we don't break compatibility with deferred-js-bower.

Hi,
Thanks for looking into it.

There should be a bower.json file there: this is clearly a mistake from my part: bower.json is there on a tag version but doesn't appear on the master branch https://github.com/warpdesign/deferred-js/tree/v1.0.3) : this will be fixed.

As for the different source directory: this has been changed by @iam4x who forked my repository.

Deferred-js is currently known as deferred-js in GitHub and Npm: I really would like to keep the same name for each registry it is available on.

Is there really nothing that can be done ?

Thank you.

@iam4x Would you be okay with un-registering your fork as deferred-js in place of this original?

I have added missing bower.json file.

Hello @desandro @warpdesign, tell me when you want to switch. I'm okay with it, but let's do it in the same hour together so we don't break projects depending on it.

@iam4x Thanks for your cooperation. Can you please unregister deferred-js using the instructions here. Then re-register it with a different name. Then @warpdesign will register his package as deferred-js

I hadn't noticed your messages, sorry about that.
It seems it's still registered. @iam4x can we agree on an hour then ? What about today 18h (GMT) ?
Thank you.

@warpdesign Sorry didn't see, I did unregister the package today.

I have registered it as deferred-js, thanks @iam4x !
