This is a great package and I thank you for it, but why not submit pull requests to the original project instead?

I'm curious too :)

I admit I've neglected it a bit recently, but I'd be happy to have contributors.

Sorry Tom! Feel free to take my code, haha. I'm actually making my own version of the kegbot right now for our sales team. It seems like I keep working on similar projects to you.

No worries, I certainly appreciate the credit. It's a small amount of code, but I like to think it's pretty clever, so I'm pretty proud of it.

If your kegbot works it will be more successful than mine ever was!

I definitely could have and hope that I gave enough credit where credit is due. It was 2am and I was trying to debug some issues in production and I needed a fix, so I patched Tom's code to make it do my bidding and then kept on tweaking things. It just turned into a full rewrite after a while and the name longjohn got stuck in my head, so I published it. No ill will meant.
