Hi guys,
I'm trying to install ShareFest, but when I run npm start, I got the following error:
Most middleware (like json) is no longer bundled with Express and must be installed separately. Please see https://github.com/senchalabs/connect#middleware.

node -v v0.10.26

@karibuTW you can use express 3.x and it will work fine. See https://github.com/Peer5/ShareFest/pull/70/files

[karibuTW]

Indeed!
It works great now!
Thanks jmg.

hope your fix will be integrated soon

Edit: I wrote a small tutorial to help installing Sharefest on Ubuntu/Debian type system

Hi,
I have edited the files as indicated by jmg but I am still getting same error. Do I need any other changes?

I have it working on express 4. don't really know how to check it into github here but happy to send it to developers here to check it in.

@bluenevus I'm a bit late to the party but if you still have that code sitting around I'd be interested to see it. You can create your own fork of this repo and push the changes there.
