Not sure. Some things are not quite right there (IMO). I remember I
had to fix some classes when I tried it to get it compile correctly.
Maybe it was because of a newer node/express version, don't remember
exactly. I didn't make any pull requests, though, because I switched to
hxnodejs then (see below).

Very true. Also some stuff is sadly outdated already (both from a node
and a haxe perspective).

Great work and already very usable (IMO). The problem is that creating
(and especially maintaining) externs of that quality is quite a lot of
work. I started out with some current express externs in that style. But
node module-APIs are also a moving target of course. Especially express
has changed quite a lot in 4.x as I have learned (no Connect
dependency, all middleware separate, which needs separate externs,
etc.).
