The name is spelled as “.NET”, and so "gemname-universal-dotNET" would read better than just "gemname-universal-dotnet".

I would love some feedback on it.

The problem is that they don't like the "." in ".net" (i.e. "universal-.net-2.0"), and have suggested alternatives such as "dotnet", "dotNet", and "Net". I have asked for clarification on their position. If I understand the Gem::Platform class correctly, the initialize method takes in the values read from RbConfig, and performs some translation to come up with a Gem platform name. So, without any changes to IronRuby itself, we could have gems with names like "iron-term-ansicolor-universal-dotnet". Of course, it would require a small tweak to the version of Ruby Gems that is distributed with IronRuby, but the change is very minor. So, does anyone object to .Net native gems like: "gemname-universal-dotnet" "gemname-universal-dotnet-2.0" "gemname-universal-dotnet-4.0" I think this would get the patch accepted more quickly. Is this kosher with LCA, or even something that needs to be brought to their attention? -- Will Green http://hotgazpacho.org/ On Sun, Mar 7, 2010 at 10:01 PM, Jim Deville <jdevi...@microsoft.com<mailto:jdevi...@microsoft.com>> wrote: I’m also wondering what will happen if you put the gem on two different gem servers (if that is possible, like github and rubyforge).

If there is no exact match, it somehow prefers “ruby” over other platforms. Btw, you could just change clr_version in Merlin\Main\Languages\Ruby\Libs\rbconfig.rb to “4.0” to simulate running on .NET 4. After doing this and using the “—platform universal-.net” option, iron-term-ansicolor-0.0.3-universal-.net-2.0 was installed which was surprising to me as I would have expected it to install iron-term-ansicolor-0.0.3-universal-.net. When I used the “—platform universal-.net-4.0” option, iron-term-ansicolor-0.0.3 was installed which was also surprising. So there does not seem to be any way to install iron-term-ansicolor-0.0.3-universal-.net.
