+# Guidelines

+- Should install to `./local/opt/<package>-<version>`
+- Should not need `sudo` (except perhaps for a one-time `setcap`, etc)
+- Follow the example of <https://github.com/webinstall/packages/tree/master/node>

+
+# Roadmap

+- Wrap release APIs to unify and expose
+ - [ ] Golang <https://golang.org/dl/?mode=json>
