## Bumping the version before a new release

If you need to change the project version, use the provided "bump-version.sh"
script.

You will need to install Maven and xmlstarlet first. In an Ubuntu-based
system, this can be done with "sudo apt-get install xmlstarlet".

Once you have the dependencies installed, you can run the script to bump the
version to 1.1.0 (as an example) as follows:

  ./bump-version.sh 1.1.0
