I used to use a project called now on npm that was abandoned a few years ago (https://github.com/Flotype/now). I was curious how this new project was using the same name on npm as the previous now that I had used.
Looking at the npm release history, versions <= 0.8.1 are the old project, and the new project picked up at 0.9.0 (should have been 1.0.0 I guess). This is consistent with npm's statements about package name transfers during the leftpad debacle, but there's just something weird about reusing package names for totally different projects...
