Migrate Information from config.xml to package.json

Feature Request

Motivation Behind Feature

Currently, we have been in the process of trying to migrate some information from config.xml to package.json file. I believe, there's more information that can be moved over. For example, the information in the author tag, like author name, email, website URL. Moving this information straight to the package.json would allow us to clean up ConfigParser.
