Thanks to the crazy changes in V8 (and some in Node core), keeping native addons compiling happily across versions, particularly 0.10 to 0.11/0.12, is a minor nightmare. The goal of this project is to store all logic necessary to develop native Node.js addons without having to inspec NODE_MODULE_VERSION and get yourself into a macro-tangle. . This project also contains some helper utilities that make addon development a bit more pleasant.
