Subject: [ANN] bellhop 1.0.0 released
Hi folks,

It is my great pleasure to release this new wonderful tool.

http://gemcutter.org/gems/bellhop

== Usage:

First fire up an unpatched webrick somewhere, say, localhost:8080,
ideally from within an xterm.

Then:
$ bellhop http://localhost:8080

== Documentation

http://tinyurl.com/ycycb7q

== Need Help?

Just ring my bell.  Or your friend's bell.  Or even your own.

Enjoy!

-greg

A brief description could invite the people to install and try the gem :)

I believe the idea is that it is a surprise.

It is just a fun little exploit based on the recently announced
security vulnerability in Webrick.   It is mostly harmless, and was
written for entertainment value.
Read the source to know exactly what it does before running it, or
just fire up webrick in an xterm and point it at it if you trust me.

When I saw it was from Greg I just went and installed it. ;)

Then I looked at the source ...

Yeah, there's a WTF? thing going on. ;)

That's expected.   There isn't a / route.   Do you have your system
bell turned on?   If you do, you should be having a very annoying
experience right now.

I tested this in xterm on linux and Terminal on OS X.   Not sure where
else it'd work.

That would explain it.

I guess I'm in the weird minority that likes to feel old school by
making my actual machine beep. ;)
