RubyForge is being hammered by people downloading the newly released
one-click installer (averaging 240 downloads/day since its release), so that
is really sucking up RubyForge's bandwidth.

Perfect procedure. If I could ask you to do one more thing I would really
appreciate it. When I added RubyGems into the installer, I had to modify the
little C program we have that sets environment variables (like PATH and
PATHEXT).

RC7 was before this modification, and I just put it back up on RubyForge.
Could you please give that a try with the same procedure you used above?

Thanks,
Curt
