We had a permission/timing mixup so this got done a bit later than 
expected.

But the initial CQ's have now been made at:

- Node.js: https://dev.eclipse.org/ipzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=9479
- NPM: https://dev.eclipse.org/ipzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=9487
- Bower: https://dev.eclipse.org/ipzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=9488

Once we see these go through we know we can start working on this 
functionality
and contribute it to Eclipse JSDT.

With hope for a speedy process :)
