The existing ecosystem has LuaRocks. While not "official", it has
several things in its favour.

1. It is actively being maintained.
2. New rocks are being added at a fair rate.
3. A certain amount of quality control is in effect.
4. The project developer currently uses the work
address LabLua, which is part of the computer science
department at PUC-Rio.
