You can test it by running "luarocks build
CopasTimer-0.4.0-1.rockspec". The first tweak needed was to rename it,
as rockspec filenames are expected to be all-lowercase. Then I noticed
that the .tar.gz is named "copastimer-0.4.0-1.tar.gz", but the
directory inside it is named "copastimer-0.4.1". This required an
additional entry, source.dir. (The "-1" suffix in rockspec versions is
reserved to the rockspec revision, separate from the package version.
I advise you to avoid using this suffix in package tarballs.) After
that change, the build succeeded. You can then run "luarocks show
copastimer" and see that it is indeed installed.

The rockspec and .src.rock file are now in the repository. Thanks for
contributing!
