Subject: [ANN] Mr Bones 2.0.2 (Haughty Hen)

Mr Bones version 2.0.2
    by Tim Pease
    http://codeforpeople.rubyforge.org/bones
    (the "Haughty Hen" release)

== DESCRIPTION

Mr Bones is a handy tool that builds a skeleton for your new Ruby projects.
The skeleton contains some starter code and a collection of rake tasks to
ease the management and deployment of your source code. Mr Bones is not
viral -- all the code your project needs is included in the skeleton (no
gem dependency required).

== CHANGES

* 2 minor enhancements
  - Added a gem cleanup rake task
  - Tasks to support Git projects
* 2 bug fixes
  - Check for Rakefile when creating a new project
  - Failed dependency resolution when not using fully qualified task names

== INSTALL

* sudo gem install bones

== SYNOPSIS

To create a new "Get Fuzzy" project:

  bones get_fuzzy

If a new release of Mr Bones comes out with better features the "Get Fuzzy"
project will need to be updated:

  bones --update get_fuzzy

And if you ever get confused about what Mr Bones can do:

  bones --help

The rake tasks in the Mr Bones framework can be found in the "tasks"
directory. Add your own tasks there when you need more functionality.

== REQUIREMENTS

Mr Bones does not have any "requirements", but if you do not have the
following gems installed you will not get all that Mr Bones has to offer.

* rubyforge - for easy gem publishing to rubyforge.org
* rcov - for code coverage testing
* rspec - if that's the way you roll
* facets - for pretty colors

== FUN FACT

XML is much like violence --
if it's not solving your problem then you are not using enough of it.

== POST SCRIPT
