The idea is this: use sake update_versions (or do it manually) to increment the
version number of the gem to be released.  You then call
"VERSION=0.9.8 rake release".

Hoe generates the gemspec file according to the Manifest, builds the package,
and then uses the rubyforge gem to upload the gem to rubyforge as a new,
versioned release.

We originally moved to Hoe because, as I just explained, it does all
the work for you,
which, trust me, is important when you have to push out a new release
of 45 gems.

As far as the much-curséd Manifest, I have no attachment to it. As long as
pushing a release is as easy (or, even better, easier!) than doing it with Hoe,
by all means, let's replace it.
