Well, there is nothing quite like sitting in a room with someone to
watch them reproduce the bug; words can be vague. I suppose that
this is the closest I'll get to that ideal bug report...(at least
over the internet). Plus, I've been looking to put that $70 that
I've spent on screencasting software to work.

I have my project svn'ed, with an externals on the rspec and
rspec_on_rails repositories. I'm at revision 1536 - Is this correct
for RC1? Do I also need to update the gem?

Best,

Scott
