+//   - local tarball
+//   - tarball url
+// 2. If resolved through the registry, then pick up the dist.shasum
+// along the way.
+// 3. Acquire request() stream fetching bytes: FETCH
+// 4. FETCH.pipe(tar unpack stream to dest)
+// 5. FETCH.pipe(shasum generator)
+// When the tar and shasum streams both finish, make sure that the
+// shasum matches dist.shasum, and if not, clean up and bail.
+//
+// publish(cb)
+//
+// 1. read package.json
+// 2. get root package object (for rev, and versions)
