# MPD Jabber bot

Jabber/XMPP bot that controls streaming MPD instance.

This software is written in Ruby and allows you to control mpd server with simple commands written in MUC chat.

It can skip to prev/next song, play/pause/stop playback, control outputs, return info about current song and song which will be played next.

This software is still in alpha stage. It works for me so I can't promise updates in near future. Feel free to send me a patch if you want. I'll consider merging them.
