 > Yep. Not arguing that. My patch didn't include it there, but I did say
 that I think it should be there. I just want to see it done in a way that
 we avoid maintaining mostly duplicate package files in the develop root as
 well as the src root (i.e. building an automated grunt task that generates
 the src version from the main root package file with one simple package
 name change).

 Could you elaborate please? I'm not sure what you mean RE: generates the
 src. version and package name change.
