I have no objections, for the time being, to us checking in packages (.gem/.tar/etc) under the pkg directory as "release candidates" and allowing folks to "gem install -source ... " them. I think the additional -source switch gives Ed heartburn, though I really want to make sure we do this the Apache way as much as possible.
That's fine...it just isn't optimal. I also don't like being reduced to submitting patches all the time. Honestly, that's limited my degree of involvement. Perhaps that's the apache way too :-) And that isn't a plea to get commit rights btw--just an observation. I'm not sure I really want commit rights and may perhaps just develop my own minimalist solr gem over at rubyforge since the space is already there.
