Due to security restructions in my environment, I am currently unable  
to request a new firewall rule to allow access to a rubyforge mirror  
(to perform gem installs). However, we currently have grandfathered-in  
approved opening for a CPAN mirror. So I had an idea: if I can find a  
rubyforge mirror hosted on the same site as a CPAN mirror, then I  
could have both! So does anyone know if there is a rubyforge mirror on  
a host that is also a CPAN mirror?
