Yes, as far as I can see there is not anything in npm that corresponds to "an open source organisation". All 
the links and references appear to just resolve onto the same "organizations" UI. Yes, I agree, and 
especially the scaling of the costs with respect to users seems prohibitive for an open source model.

Cheers,

I know from experience that this is not something we can pay for from IDRC funds. Also, it seems that the scope "fluid" is taken already, although we can still take the scope "fluid-project".
