We have added Node.js as a MaxMind Supported GeoIP2 API
([NPM](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@maxmind/geoip2-node),
[GitHub](https://github.com/maxmind/GeoIP2-node)). It provides an API for the
GeoIP2 databases, and will provide an API for the GeoIP2 web services. This API
also works with MaxMind's free GeoLite2 databases.
