+.SH "NAME"
+\fBnpm-registry\fR \- The JavaScript Package Registry
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.P
+To resolve packages by name and version, npm talks to a registry website
+that implements the CommonJS Package Registry specification for reading
+package info\.
+.P
+Additionally, npm's package registry implementation supports several
+write APIs as well, to allow for publishing packages and managing user
+account information\.
+.P
+The official public npm registry is at https://registry\.npmjs\.org/\|\.  It
+is powered by a CouchDB database, of which there is a public mirror at
+https://skimdb\.npmjs\.com/registry\|\.  The code for the couchapp is
+available at https://github\.com/npm/npm\-registry\-couchapp\|\.
+.P
+The registry URL used is determined by the scope of the package (see
+npm help 7 \fBnpm\-scope\fP)\. If no scope is specified, the default registry is used, which is
+supplied by the \fBregistry\fP config parameter\.  See npm help \fBnpm\-config\fP,
+npm help 5 \fBnpmrc\fP, and npm help 7 \fBnpm\-config\fP for more on managing npm's configuration\.
+.SH Can I run my own private registry?
+.P
+Yes!
+.P
+The easiest way is to replicate the couch database, and use the same (or
+similar) design doc to implement the APIs\.
+.P
+If you set up continuous replication from the official CouchDB, and then
+set your internal CouchDB as the registry config, then you'll be able
+to read any published packages, in addition to your private ones, and by
+default will only publish internally\. 
+.P
+If you then want to publish a package for the whole world to see, you can
+simply override the \fB\-\-registry\fP option for that \fBpublish\fP command\.
+.SH I don't want my package published in the official registry\. It's private\.
+.P
+Set \fB"private": true\fP in your package\.json to prevent it from being
+published at all, or
+\fB"publishConfig":{"registry":"http://my\-internal\-registry\.local"}\fP
+to force it to be published only to your internal registry\.
+.P
+See npm help 5 \fBpackage\.json\fP for more info on what goes in the package\.json file\.
+.SH Will you replicate from my registry into the public one?
+.P
+No\.  If you want things to be public, then publish them into the public
+registry using npm\.  What little security there is would be for nought
+otherwise\.
+.SH Do I have to use couchdb to build a registry that npm can talk to?
+.P
+No, but it's way easier\.  Basically, yes, you do, or you have to
+effectively implement the entire CouchDB API anyway\.
+.SH Is there a website or something to see package docs and such?
+.P
+Yes, head over to https://npmjs\.com/
