Bower Package missing build?

Hi there,
I'm using queue-async as both a bower component and node module, and I'm noticing a discrepancy between the packages that my webpack config is having a hard time resolving. The node module seems to be pre-built, having a build folder pre-existing when you pull the repository down -- however the bower component seems to be only available through an es6 loader. Was this intentional, or is the bower component missing a build script?

AFAIK, Bower still does not support publishing generated files and so there is no way to include the generated UMD build in the release, as there is with npm. I will not be checking in the generated files to the git repository due to the overhead this adds to development; I also do not want to maintain a separate git repository to hold just the generated files, as some have done (e.g., bower-chosen).

If you want to use the generated UMD build in the published release, please use npm or use the provided queue.zip download attached to the latest release. Otherwise, you must build it yourself from the ES6 source using Rollup, Webpack, or your bundler of choice.
