    Node peoples... is there any way to specify a root directory for my npm package so that I don't need require("mypackage/lib/foo")?

        @wycats To quote @Raynos2 "Just move the files to the root of your folder. If there are too many files, then don't have so many files."

        @izs that’s a pretty embarrassing reply. Not every reason to not want top-level files is “having too many files” @Raynos2

        @wycats @izs Simple is better, less files is better. Reduce complexity, do smaller things.

        @Raynos2 nobody’s proposing less files, but more repos and more packages. More files, not less. @izs

        @wycats @izs lowering the complexity of an individual package generally leads to less files making the problem go away.

        @Raynos2 @wycats @izs We ended up building our own tooling around require to make working on many, many modules in tandem sane. :P

        @deanero @Raynos2 @wycats yes, longer explanation, please! If 4 extra chars in require() args was your biggest challenge, I'm surprised.

        @wycats How would you differentiate from require('mypkg/test/shared/file.js')? What make "lib" so special? File system >>> convention

        @wycats I see what you did there, but won't fall for it. You can't answer my question with a question. Answer, or don't answer. Don't troll.

        @indexzero I wasn't trolling. After the heated discussion last night I was shocked to find that node_modules did exactly what I needed

        @wycats And you avoid the question again. Bravo. Can't make one non-npm dir special or everything else breaks like require('pkg/test/file');

        @wycats perhaps it's a naming convention problem? E.g., ./lib for app specific stuff, ./modules for exposed `require('thing/modules/foo')`

        @wycats @danheberden you used to be able to do that, but it was removed because it's simpler without that "feature".

        @wycats See: http://package.json.nodejitsu.com/ , main determines which file is loaded when using require('mypackage')

        @wycats Not that I'm aware of, unless you create a ./foo.js "manifest" that just loads files from ./lib/. But is that worth the extra file?

        @wycats Put your files in the root of your package, expose them as a root object, or split them up into separate packages like a gentleman.
