nodejs-foundation NPM account
2 minor things:
- Now that the NodeJS foundation has been changed, should the account get renamed?
- There is an issue with the NPM profile having a trailing
/that gets encoded to%252fif you look at the GitHub link on https://www.npmjs.com/~nodejs-foundation
Does this (https://www.npmjs.com/org/nodejs) belong to the project? There are no public packages.
Here's a screenshot for the second item:

@nschonni I removed the trailing /.
In terms of a rename, I'm not sure you can rename your npm account. That would mean we would have to create a new account and then add the new user to all of the packages that the nodejs-account is currently associated with.
It should still be specific to the Node.js project I think, unless we wanted to have the backup be the foundation one, but then I'm not sure our build WG could access it directly.
Afaik we have the nodejs org on npmjs.
When I changed my handle I wrote a script to automate giving permissions to all my packages to my new account... Something like that should be easy enough to roll out it we want to change handles

Yup, not sure if it worth it, so feel free to close.
I don't know if you transferred them into Node NPM Org if that would do the same thing as the break glass account, but it sounds like that setup might be changing with the GitHub acquisition
