So thanks to Luke we have included the latest tag of AeroGear.js in the Bower registry. This allows app developers to include AeroGear in their projects easily through that package management system or via other tools like Yeoman. The issue is our tags include our entire repo and since Bower basis what it includes in someone's project by what is in the tag, our entire repo gets dropped in the user's project which I'm sure not too many people will be happy about.

I noticed that jQuery has a separate repo for Bower so that only the dist files are included but Luke pointed out that Backbone drops in the whole repo so it doesn't seem like there is a "standard" yet. I would vote that we create another repo, aerogear/aerogear-js-bower (or something like that) so that our users that use Bower can include the files without worrying about gitignoring our entire repo from the included component.

It's really easy to use and I would rather not duplicate the info that you can get on the Yeoman or Bower sites.
