I wrote the observational gem a while back and it was hosted on the github gem server. I never got around to pushing a version to gemcutter and I guess somebody else did it for me. Anyway, I've got a new version to release, and it'd be handy if I could get ownership so I could do that.

Thanks!

   Hi there,

   I've added the current gem owner to this thread. We have a policy of not going in and revoking ownership without giving the original owner some time to adjust. You can use the gem owner command to give James ownership of the gem:

   http://rubygems.org/pages/gem_docs#owner

   After that, you can push a forked gem simply by naming the gemspec "yourusername-observational", rebuilding, and pushing.

   Sorry for the trouble James. I didn't really know what I was doing... What
   email address should I give ownership to?

   Great gem, by the way :) I hope my bug fixes got in ;)

   No worries at all. My gemcutter email is [email blocked]

   The gem should be entirely in your hands now!

   Thanks.
