As I'm moving over the rest of my Ruby projects from SourceForge to RubyForge, I've finally begun the process of providing gems for said projects. For the pure Ruby projects anyway.
C extensions are another matter, as I'm convinced there's a bug in Gems with regards to required_path and properly setting the $LOAD_PATH for packages with a namespace and directory, e.g. sys/admin. Either I can get the shared object in the proper directory, but the $LOAD_PATH is set wrong, or I can get a proper $LOAD_PATH, but the shared object is in the wrong directory. This doesn't appear to be an issue with pure Ruby, however.
So, anyway, now you'll find stuff like ptools, interface and crypt-rot13 on RubyForge if you're interested. :)
