Ah sometimes you get people asking to use a name such as my "log" pkg in npm, but bumping from 2.0 to 3.0 so that dependencies aren't messed up. Assuming the person has no bad intentions I think it's a perfectly reasonable request.
I ignored this particular request via email a few times, because I just really don't want to spend time dealing with Node stuff. You then get a request from NPM support asking the same thing, so I agreed to it, that's all it takes to get access to a package really.
I think from now on I'm just going to tell people to come up with a different name, this wouldn't be a problem if the names were scoped by default.
