You can fork it til the cows come home, but everyone downloading core-js off of npm gets the one from upstream.



True, I suppose I should have been clearer: fork and resubmit to npm with a new label. 'core2-js' or something.


can't the governance structure of NPM remove and reassign the NPMish "ownership" and authoritative repo to a new fork in circumstances like the maintainer abandoning it, going to jail, being a dumbass or whatever? If NPM is the authority, it's their own rules that would allow/disallow it, right?

(note: I'm unfamiliar with this project, so seriously I'm asking if/why this is an issue)
