Thanks for this release. One problem with the MSI install is that it is  
requiring admin rights to install. This is not an option for me.

thanks for all the hard work

Jim, could we do a non-admin installer that puts the files in the user  
directory?

igem fails to install gems to the default install location (c:\Program  
Files\IronRuby 0.9.2) presumably because of the spaces.

I can’t recall the exact error message but something about “invalid  
characters in the path”.

It seems fine if you install ironruby to a path that doesn’t contain  
spaces.

Not sure whether this is a bug with rubygems or ironruby? Something  
should be escaping the space characters or wrapping in quotes.
