The significant statistic would be how many people who install a gem actually USE the autogenerated rdocs. I personally always turn them off to speed installation. I'm +1 on making it default to off, if only to increase the perceived speed of gem installation in the default case. If you know enough to want rdoc, you should know enough to enable autogeneration. -- Chad _______________________________________________ Rubygems-developers mailing list http://rubyforge.org/projects/rubygems Rubygems-developers@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/rubygems-developers
