This service is awesome.

We should crowd fund the hosting of it.

I would love to pay for hosting for a year or so. Would also love to chip in making it better

:O That's great to hear!

Yeah I've been thinking about asking for donations, but currently this is running on a small joyent instance together with everything else I'm hosting, so I'd have to pay for that anyways.

...However :D I just added a gittip link to the readme :)

Regarding progress, current master keeps a replica of the npm registry to make it faster and reduce npm load. To make it deployable we need to add a fallback for the case where the sync isn't finished yet and we need to request data from the actual registry. That would be a good place to start imo.
