Research direction

Start by locating the package manifest entry for "http-browserify": "~0.1.1" and compare it with the Node version requirement discussed in the issue. Review the referenced upstream commit and determine the intended minor-version update. Done means the supported Node requirement and related dependency metadata match the agreed version.

Description

I know I can upgrade.
But I recommend at least updating minor version.

Because now for example browserify requires 0.8 too.

"http-browserify" : "~0.1.1",
