Hey Pierre, nice reading you. Thanks for heads up! I have retitled it and verified there are no collisions with the binaries. 

CC'ing Edward, since this package grew directly out during the review of node-material-web: that package needs Dart Sass, which can only be built from source with dart2js from the Dart SDK: hence this ITP. 

CC'ing also #998024, since this will unblock that one.

Having dart-sdk finally unblocks the long-standing RFP #998024 (Dart Sass) which could then be packaged and close it (also a prerequisite for #931793, Flutter). The proof of concept already builds the Dart SDK from source, offline, in sbuild with the Debian toolchain (using system clang/gn/ninja) and a self-hosting bootstrap like ghc/gnat; 

I'll need some guidance regarding the agreement on that bootstrap before any upload. I would appreciate anyone pitching in on this.

Best,

Juan
