# How to echobot with XMPP, BOSH, and Strophe
1. Setup ejabberd(http://www.ejabberd.im/) server and setup account [email protected]
NOTE: localhost should be enough. If you setup something else, make sure you add it at /etc/hosts like this
#/etc/hosts
127.0.0.1 localhost.local
NOTE: Also download Psi(http://psi-im.org/), and make sure you can connect to your ejabberd server.
2. Download strophe(http://code.stanziq.com/strophe/) and place it (eg: /Users/makoto/work/sample/strophejs-1.0)

Use one of these techniques to install node and npm without having to sudo. Discussed in more detail at http://joyeur.com/2010/12/10/installing-node-and-npm/ Note: npm >=0.3 is *safer* when using sudo.
echo 'export PATH=$HOME/local/bin:$PATH' >> ~/.bashrc
. ~/.bashrc
mkdir ~/local
mkdir ~/node-latest-install
cd ~/node-latest-install
curl http://nodejs.org/dist/node-latest.tar.gz | tar xz --strip-components=1
./configure --prefix=~/local
make install # ok, fine, this step probably takes more than 30 seconds...

Bump a software project's VERSION, add the CHANGES, and tag with GIT

# works with a file called VERSION in the current directory,
# the contents of which should be a semantic version number
# such as "1.2.3"
# this script will display the current version, automatically
# suggest a "minor" version update, and ask for input to use
# the suggestion, or a newly entered value.
