I am a UI team leader. My team has a lot of projects using different languages/technologies.

In some parts we will rewrite (gradually - @Ampt this is for you) the application in order to enable new fresh technologies in and get old dinosaurs out.

I am going to use Node Package Manager to set up an "all powerful" build/dependency manager.

Can I use NPM to depend on a private github repository?
Can I use NPM to depend on SVN?
Will NPM play nice with quickbuild?
Since each project might have a slightly different structure (think jetty/maven or play!framework) can I configure NPM to install some dependencies in different folders while still running it from the project's root?
How can I, using NPM, get development resources out and build a packaged product? (like a war)
Yes/No - is there a reason to use grunt? No discussion, just one liners.
