I've got other movies up there too from all my presentations and demos.

ETA: I should add, not only is that releasing a new gem, it is also posting news to rubyforge, my blog, and the seattle.rb and ruby-talk mailing lists. I don't have to do anything afterwards.

What is Hoe?

Hoe is a library that provides extensions to rake to automate every step of the development process from genesis to release. It provides project creation, configuration, and a multitude of tasks including project maintenance, testing, analysis, and release. We found rake to be an incredible vehicle for functionality in the abstract, but decidedly lacking in concrete functionality. We filled in all the blanks we could through a "hoe-spec":

require "hoe"
Hoe.spec "project_name" do
  developer "Ryan Davis", "ryand-ruby@zenspider.com"
  # ...
end

This hoe-spec specifies everything about your task that is different from the defaults and from that, creates a multitude of tasks and a gemspec used for packaging and release. When you update hoe, you update all your projects that use hoe. That's it. Nothing more is needed. Everything is DRY.

Hoe plugins providing tasks used by seattle.rb.
