Subject: preview gems

I'm planning to make a preview release of next version of Watir.

I'm not quite sure how to create and release the gem for it. Our last 
release was delivered both as a gem and packaged with the nullsoft 
installer. We've found significant demand for both forms and plan to 
continue with both.

I'd like for people who do "gem install watir" to continue to get watir 
1.4.1. But i'd also like people who want the new preview release to be able 
to install via gem.

Here's what i am thinking:

The "preview" release of Watir 1.5 will be "1.5.0". However, the gem will 
be called watir-dev (or watir-preview or something). So you could install 
it with "gem install watir-dev".

Does this make sense?

Bret
