I’ve reported a bug concering setup.rb to this list and directly to  
Minero with no response. I have another bug to report now too. This was  
over a week ago.

I’ve done similarly with Rubygems too. Again no response.

What kind of time frame should one give before sending out the search  
party? 😉

This one I can’t help you with. Sometimes, when you’re trying to get  
in touch with the lone developer on a project, you’re just outta luck.

Have you tried sending a message to the rubygems-developers mailing  
list, or posting a bug to their bug tracker? Given the high volume of  
messages on ruby-talk these days, it’s quite possible that the  
RubyGems folk overlooked your original question(s). You might get more  
of a response by using that project’s dedicated mailing list and/or  
tracker.
