jeweler thought:

[rogerdpack]

Suggestion:
Ability to say something like:

require 'jeweler'
Jeweler::Tasks.new do |s|
s.name = "universal-scene-skipper"
s.summary = Jeweler::Github.summary from "rdp/universal-scene-
skipper"
...
end

Just so that there are fewer places one needs to put a summary.

Another thought might be to auto-set people's description for them,
like

if description is not set:
s.description = File.read('README')

Thoughts?

I have a patch that (amongst other things) sets the github homepage
link. Still waiting for Josh to review it though.

that would be nice, too. In fact, you could set the gem name to the
github repo name, too--that's probably a pretty common definition.

I suppose in reality you could get the summary from github, the
description from the README, and the name from github. That's almost
everything :)
