* Manifest/CHANGELOG can be maintainance is painful.
I really hate having those in the source tree when
I have a version control system that already:
1) encourages me to make meaningful commits
2) is highly scriptable for generating manifests/changelogs
* hand-rolled gemspec allows more control for specifying
pre-release gem versions
* Less magic over what the `rubyforge` command does, being
able to spawn $VISUAL on changelogs/release notes and make
edits on them is nice.
Additionally I still strongly prefer GNU make over Rake for many
tasks since it offers better parallelization and some things are
easier *for me* in shell than Ruby.
