Are the two methods about the same with respect to their "maturity" and stability? On the postgres ruby extension page: http://ruby.scripting.ca/postgres/ Are the "snapshot" versions are meant to be beta versions or are they stable? ( Is the last stable release really from 2003 ?) And, by the way, what is a *.gem file?
