We've been using Cloudsmith for a few years to manage all of our private packages across multiple tech stacks and it's worked great. Looks like this will be great for extending that to public packages too and making sure we're only using the *best* OSS libraries.

@arcurn Thank you for your support, Shane! There's an almost literal gold mine of information in the ecosystem waiting to be unearthed, and there's been so much fantastic progress recently (by many companies, not just Cloudsmith). The trick will be surfacing that in an easily searchable, digestible, discoverable, and probably most importantly, understandable way. There is much work to be done here, but it's exciting to contribute. :)
