I looked at this module couple of weeks ago. If you check GitHub Network page here https://github.com/sgentle/phantomjs-node/network you'll see that a lot of people forked this project and add more functionality to it.
There's also another binding to Phantom: https://npmjs.org/package/node-phantom I ended up using one of the forks and declared my dependency as "phantom": "git://github.com/sebv/phantomjs-node.git" Like others suggested if you are sure that you can commit to supporting this module then follow the official dispute procedure: https://npmjs.org/doc/disputes.html Isaac said in podcast that in practice it works really well. However, If you're not sure that you'll be able to continuously devote your time to this project, then picking a decent fork may be a better idea.
