Petition to free the module x/type from deno.land

Here is the module url: https://deno.land/x/type It says it would be deleted after 30 days but has nothing published to it. Can it be freed?

i'd only give it to them if they make something serious out of it, like porting @types over or smth like that but who gives a shit about my opinion

yeah I'd like to take it over, I just have a simple function that I write over and over again to basically find the type of an unknown how would one do that? @boywithkeyboard thats an interesting idea... I seem to never need that library anymore but I wonder why it hasn't been ported already?

prolly coz Deno has npm support now and you won't really need @types within Deno's ecosystem.

most of the community (including me) hates both the npm: and node: specifier though

yeah and I don't think you'd need @types outside of node modules, would you?

send an email to modules@deno.com with the details (new repo, gh usersame, & module you want to take over)
