What solutions to this do others use?

Simple - I don’t put out a gems for development releases. You want it?
You gotta grab it yourself. :slight_smile:

Does rubygems support a “status” option, i.e. “stable”, “alpha”,
“development”, etc? Then set the default to only install “stable” gems,
with an option to install the specified status level, e.g. gem install
foo --status=any would grab the latest and greatest, regardless of dev
status.

Might be handy.
