In case you were not aware, in a few months time we will be changing the way usernames are created on the bridge (for security reasons).  Custom whitelist usernames will no longer be allowed and the bridge randomly generated username must be used instead.  Please see below link for more information:\r\nhttp://www.developers.meethue.com/documentation/important-whitelist-changes\r\n\r\nAm not a Ruby developer myself, but a quick glance at the code and in client.rb (line 97) the setting of the username will have no effect after February 2016 (the username should be derived from the bridge success response as shown in the above link) and the initialization of the username will stop working also.   Hopefully the above link should make it clear what changes need to be done here.  Apologies for the inconvenience.\r\n\r\nThanks\r\nSteve"}}
