Jamis,

What do you think about integrating the technique from Mike Clark's blog at
the bottom section ("The Cadillac Approach") of
http://clarkware.com/cgi/blosxom/2007/01/18#ManagingVersionsWithCap ?

This would be a good value add / "lighter weight" deployment option for
those who need to manage rails in the vendor area (e.g. for those on
managed/shared hosting providers).

I did note the common.rake file referenced seems to have a bug that I'm
looking at now.  It seems to just check out  Rails Edge as opposed to
checking out the particular revision you configure.  I'm intended to modify
it for myself so you configure the rails TAG version you want as I'm only
going to be sticking to stable versions.

Regards
Greg
