This object contains one required field (name) and two optional fields (email) and (url).
For example: { "name" : "John Doe", "email" : "john.doe@example.com", "url" : "http://john.doe.example.com/" }

Describe the bug in detail: The
package.json
files in the release zips are missing the required fieldsauthor.name
andauthor.email
. These fields are required as per the specification and exclusion of these fields may lead to issues with software that expects it. Especially since this is a "curated" package.Provide steps/code to reproduce the bug: N/A
Expected behavior: The
author.name
andauthor.email
fields should be present in all past and future versions.Additional Information: N/A
