👍 Critical upgrade

Given github/hubot-scripts#1113, I think it'd make sense for the scripts in hubot (not hubot-scripts) to be moved to their own things as well.

Thoughts?

What do you mean by "moved to their own things"? Moved to npm packages?

I thought the idea with the included scripts was to give someone downloading/installing hubot for the first time a great bootstrap set of scripts to get started. I was able to git clone and then go right to src/scripts and start adding/modifying my own.

It's been a while since I used npm for anything, but aren't they installed in a dot directory locally or in your user directory somewhere? That doesn't feel like as pleasant of a first run experience. :(

Yep.

I'm not sure what the original motivation to be honest, was started way before I started :) The problem with including scripts here is that they can change over time, but existing hubot installs have no way of manually updating them.

That actually isn't the way to start a hubot anymore.. causes lots of problems :( See https://github.com/github/hubot/tree/master/docs#getting-started-with-hubot for notes on the new usage.

I'd propose having some example scripts that really are examples, rather than ones that have real functionality.

Yep. If you've created a new hubot, bin/hubot takes care of running npm install to install dependencies. This includes hubot-scripts, which has scripts included by default in hubot-scripts.json.
