Uh, how does putting a date on the mswin32 gem help you? You still have a prompt here, you'd still have to pick the latest ruby version, and it would just complicate things. I guess I don't see what this does for you. Another option is for you to simply install it like normal on one machine, and then just rsync your gem directory to the other machines. Considering there are quite a few ways to clone software from one machine to a group of others (PIKT, rsync, cfengine, unison to name a few), I think you should check out a few of those first. It might be that capistrano and gems just isn't really the right tool for this job.\ -- Zed A.
