Thanks for rspec–it totally rocks. The stubbing mechanism and the  
english like syntax are very very very nice.

Thanks!

It seems the spec task somehow depends on spicycode-rcov, which is not  
available on RubyForge. Was that an unintentional glitch?

The gem was build with RubyGems 1.3, which allow you have runtime and  
development dependencies.

With RubyGems 1.3.0 spicycode-rcov is not installed, but with 1.2 it  
does.

I hope JRuby can jump soon to 1.3 (and soon 1.3.1) for us to rejoice  
of development and runtime dependencies (at last, no more hoe  
dependencies for us).

So: was unintentional 🙂

Regards,

1.3 update is planned for JRuby 1.1.5 (soon).
