Subject: rake prepare gem

I'm using rake to create a gem, but I have some questions.

Before creating a gem in Rake i would like to copy some files to
a different directory and then create the package.

I tried something like this:

task :gem => [:prepare_gem]

task :prepare_gem do
    # do stuff here
    gem_task.gem_spec.files = files.to_a
end

But the problem is that the prepare_gem is executed AFTER the gem
task. Is this normal?
