Currently, the version of this project published on NPM depends on gRPC version 1.7.3. The master branch has since been updated to use ~1.8.0, which is great, except that hasn't been published yet to NPM.

I'd like to request a new version be published to NPM with the latest updates.

The reason this is important is because gRPC 1.7.3 isn't available for Alpine Linux (reference):

For [version 1.7.3] of gRPC we separated the binaries for glibc and musl (Alpine) because people were reporting issues with trying to run the glibc binary on Alpine. But we did not actually publish the Alpine binaries until grpc 1.8.0.

For many people, Alpine is the flavor of choice for build servers. So automated builds for projects that depend on this one always fail at the moment.
