EventEmitter removed from Node

[brentrockwood]

EventEmitter has been removed from NodeJs. Therefore, this package no longer builds. Is there any plan to update this module?

Tested on:

• Node 0.6.6
• npm 1.0.106

Thanks for the report. I'll update the package to work with the current node.js version this week.

Sorry its taken longer then I said but I've made the changes and pushed to master support for node 0.6. Once I've tested on Linux I'll release a new version.

0.9 released
