Is this gems repo supposed to be in sync with [gems.rubyforge.org](http://gems.rubyforge.org) or is  
the [rubyonrails.org](http://rubyonrails.org) gem server a regular build of the HEAD Rails  
revision?

For example, I noticed that actionmailer version 2.2.2 is different on  
the 2 servers. The one on [rubyonrails.org](http://rubyonrails.org) has a later version than  
what was the actual 2.2.2 release.
