Re: [CODE4LIB] ruby-zoom port to 1.9.2
Brice, Do you have a a rubyforge account/email that I can use when requesting that you are added as an admin? I can't seem to get the `gem owner` command to respect my authoritay... //Ed On Tue, Aug 30, 2011 at 6:12 PM, Jonathan Rochkind rochk...@jhu.edu wrote: If you're unable to contact the original authors, you can contact the folks who maintain rubygems.org, and ask them to give you the rights to release a new version of the gem from (and pointing to) your repo, and effectively take over the gem.

All of the standard z39.50 features are ported. The only feature left is the packages, which allow for the extended services. I'd appreciate anyone that uses it to provide feedback.

Otherwise, I'll probably just drop the support entirely from my fork (since I won't need it going forward anyway). I've also contacted the original authors, hopefully they follow-up.

Re: [CODE4LIB] ruby-zoom port to 1.9.2
I opened a ticket with rubygems folks: http://help.rubygems.org/discussions/problems/720-ruby-zoom-ownership Maybe that will help get you the ability to maintain this module. Thanks jrochkind for the help in #code4lib channel... //Ed
