-= Announce: RubyGems Release 0.8.7
-
-Time passes quickly, and so does software development.  Release 0.8.7
-of RubyGems is availble for public release.  Although another point
-release, you will find a number of very nice new features.
-
-First the numbers, 220 different gems available, over 25,000
-downloads of RubyGems, and nearly 190,000 gems downloads.  Thanks to
-everyone for their support.
-
-== What's New
-
-Even though it has only been a few weeks since that last release,
-there are quite a number of new features in 0.8.7.  A complete list of
-new features will be given below, but here is a summary of the hot
-items.
-
-* The bug that prevented some users from installing rails has been
-  squashed.  A big thanks to Bill Guindon (aGorilla) for helping track
-  that one down.
-
-There are several new commands available on the gem command:
-
-* gem cleanup GEMNAME -- Cleanup (uninstall) all the old versions of
-  gem.  If the gem name is omitted, the entire repository is cleaned.
-
-* gem dependency GEMNAME -- Show the dependencies for the named gems.
-  This is really helpful when trying to figure out what gem needs what
-  other gem.
-
-There changes to the existing commands as well.
-
-* gem uninstall is much smarter about removing gems from the
-  repository.  Lists of gems are now uninstalled in proper dependency
-  order (ie. if A depends on B, A is uninstalled first).  Also,
-  warnings about broken dependencies occur only when removing the
-  *last* gem that supports a dependency is removed.
-
-Both gem install and gem uninstall support some new command line
-options that can reduce the amount of yes/no queries given the user.
-For install we have:
-
-* --ignore-dependencies -- Only install requests gems, no
-  dependendecies are automatically installed.
-* --include-dependencies -- Automatically install dependencies,
-  without confirmation.
-
-For gem uninstall, the new options are:
-
-* --all -- Uninstall all matching gems without confirmation.
-* --ignore-dependencies -- Uninstall, even if dependencies are broken.
-* --executables -- Remove executables without confirmation
-
-Under general cleanup, gems will not, by default, run RDoc on packages
-that do not have the RDoc flag set.
-
-And finally there is a new library file 'gemconfigure' to aid in
-writing version sensitive applications (without undue dependencies on
-RubyGems); and 'gemwhich', a short script to locate libraries in the
-file system.  You can read more about them here:
-
-* gemconfigure: http://docs.rubygems.org/read/chapter/4#page73
-* gemwhich: http://docs.rubygems.org/read/chapter/17
-
-== What is RubyGems?
-
-RubyGems is a package management system for Ruby applications and
-libraries.  RubyGems one command download makes installing Ruby software
-fun and enjoyable again. (Ok, not really.)
-
-Many gems are available for download from the RubyForge site.  Browse
-the list of gems with a "gem list --remote" command and download what
-you need with a simple "gem install <name-of-gem>".  RubyGems takes care
-of the details of installing, not only the gem you requested, but also
-any gems needed by the software you selected.
-
-== How can I get all this great stuff?
-
-Well, here's how ...
-
-To download and install:
-
-1. DOWNLOAD FROM: http://rubyforge.org/frs/?group_id=126
-2. UNPACK INTO A DIRECTORY AND CD THERE
-3. INSTALL WITH:  ruby setup.rb all  (you may need admin/root privilege)
-
-... or, if you have RubyGems version 0.8.5 or later ....
-
-  $ gem update --system   (again, might need to be admin/root)
-
-... If you don't have a recent RubyGems, you can still do the two-step ....
-
-  $ gem install rubygems-update  (again, might need to be admin/root)
-  $ update_rubygems              (... here too)
-
-== Detailed Change List
-
-This list touches on most of the user visible changes in the RubyGems
-change log.  See the change log file for even more details.
-
-* Fixed bug in cache manager that caused the cache to be reread every
-  time on Windows.
-
-* Removed annoying message about not finding .gemrc.
-
-* Uninstall command will now accept the following options:
-  * --all (uninstall all matches without query),
-  * --ignore-dependencies (ignore dependency constraints while
-    uninstalling),
-  * --executables (remove the executables without querying).
-
-* New command: "gem cleanup" will remove all old versions of the list
-  gems (or the entire repository).
-
-* Uninstalling now will only query if removing a gem actually will
-  cause a dependency to be unfulfilled.
-
-* A new library file "gemconfigure.rb" makes is easy to take advantage
-  of dynamic versioning without becoming tied to using RubyGems.
-
-* Source URIs given to the --source option will now assume an
-  "http://" prefix if one is not given.
-
-* New Command: "gem dependency" will show the dependency requirements
-  of any installed gem.  Reverse dependencies are also supported.
-
-== Thanks
-
-Thanks to David Heinemeier Hansson for a number of suggestions that
-made it into this release.  Also thanks go to Bill Guindon (aGorilla)
-and Jim Freeze for feedback and testing of intermediate versions.
-
-Keep those gems coming!

-= Announce: RubyGems Release 0.9.0
-
-Finally, the much anticipated RubyGems version 0.9.0 is now available.
-This release includes a number of new features and bug fixes.  The
-number one change is that we can now download the gem index
-incrementally.  This will greatly speed up the gem command when only a
-few gems are out of date.
-
-Major Enhancments include:
-
-* The gem index is now downloaded incrementally, only updating entries
-  that are out of date.  If more than 50 entries are out of date, we
-  revert back to a bulk download.
-* Several patches related to allowing RubyGems to work with
-  authenticating proxies (from Danie Roux and Anatol Pomozov).  Just
-  put the user and password in the proxy URL (e.g. -p
-  http://user:password@proxy.address.com:8080) or use the
-  HTTP_PROXY_USER and HTTP_PROXY_PASS environment variables.
-* The gem unpack command can now accept a file path rather than just a
-  install gem name.
-* Both RI and RDOC documents are now generated by default.
-* A gemri command is included to read gem RI docs (only needed for
-  Ruby 1.8.4 or earlier).
-
-Minor enhancements include:  
-
-* Verison 0.0.0 is now a valid gem version.
-* Better detection of missing SSL functionality.
-* SSL is not required if the security policy does not require
-  signature checking.
-* Rake built extensions are now supported (Tilman Sauerbeck).
-* Several autorequire bug fixes.
-* --traceback is now an alias for --backtrace (I can never remember
-  which one it is).
-* SAFE=1 compatibility fixes.
-* .rbw is now a supported suffix for RubyGem's custom require.
-* Several Ruby 1.9 compatibility fixes (Eric Hodel).
-
-Bug Fixes:
-
-* Added dashes to gemspecs generated in Ruby 1.8.3.  This solves some
-  cross-Ruby version compatibility issues.
-* Fixed bug where the wrong executables could be uninstalled (Eric
-  Hodel).
-* Fixed bug where gem unpack occasionally unpacked the wrong gem.
-* Fixed bug where a fatal error occured when permissions on .gemrc
-  were too restrictive (reported by Luca Pireddu).
-* Fixed prefix handling for native expressions (patch by Aaron Patterson).
-* Fixed several Upgrade => Update typos.

-maintain an RSS feed at http://onestepback.org/gemwatch.rss.
-
-== How can I get RubyGems?
-
-If you have a recent version of RubyGems (0.8.5 or later), then all
-you need to do is:
-
-  $ gem update --system   (you might need to be admin/root)
-
-(Note: You may have to run the command twice if you have any previosly
-installed rubygems-update gems).
-
-If you have an older version of RubyGems installed, then you can still
-do it in two steps:
-
-  $ gem install rubygems-update  (again, might need to be admin/root)
-  $ update_rubygems              (... here too)
-
-If you don't have any gems install, there is still the pre-gem
-approach to getting software ... doing it manually:
-
-1. DOWNLOAD FROM: http://rubyforge.org/frs/?group_id=126
-2. UNPACK INTO A DIRECTORY AND CD THERE
-3. INSTALL WITH:  ruby setup.rb all  (you may need admin/root privilege)
-
-== What's Next
-
-The next big thing on the plate is to integrate the local/remote gem
-logic and make the whole thing more consistent.

-= Announce: RubyGems Release 0.9.3
-
-Release 0.9.3 is a maintenance release of RubyGems that fixes a problem
-with ZLib on Windows playforms.
-
-If you are experiencing "Buffer Error" problems with RubyGems, we
-recommend upgrading to RubyGems 0.9.3.
-
-Bug Fixes Include:
-
-The ZLib library on Windows will occasionally complains about a buffer
-error when unpacking gems.  The Gems software has a workaround for
-that problem, but the workaround was only enabled for versions of ZLib
-1.2.1 or earlier.  We have received several reports of the error
-occuring with ZLib 1.2.3, so we have permanently enabled the work
-around on all versions.

-= Announce: RubyGems Release 0.9.4
-
-Release 0.9.4 is a maintenance release of RubyGems that fixes a number of small bugs.
-
-If you are experiencing problems with the source index (e.g. strange
-"No Method" errors), or problems with zlib (e.g. "Buffer Error"
-messsage), we recommend upgrading to RubyGems 0.9.4.
-
-Bug Fixes Include:
-
-* Several people have been experiencing problems with no method errors
-  on the source index cache.  The source index cache is now a bit more
-  self healing.  Furthermore, if the source index cache is
-  irreparable, then it is automatically dropped and reloaded.
-
-* The source cache files may now be dropped with the "gem sources
-  --clear-all" command.  (This command may require root is the system
-  source cache is in a root protected area).
-
-* Several sub-commands were accidently dropped from the "gem" command.
