I have an issue with the name of your gem/class ;)

Hi,

I created the "Acme" namespace here in the Ruby world for just such gems as yours. Would you consider republishing it under the Acme::DoubleHelix name?

We already have: Acme::Bleach, Acme::Heisenberg and Acme::Leeway all in the tradition of Perl's Acme::* libs. All of which are listed as requirements of the base Acme gem for simple install.

If you're not interested, no problem, I'm happy to do the legwork for you, just thought I'd offer in case you were interested.

I agree to clarify the category of gems. However, I don't think that a namespace is a good way of that. I guess few one will benefits even if I added just a line:

module Acme; module DoubleHelix; end; end 

to this code.

Rather, RubyGems should have the feature. It would be very good if the category information is included in gemspec and if we can filter gems with category specified:

gem search -c acme

So, you want to change RubyGems rather than namespace your gem?
