Hi Moses,

Thank you for your contributions.

To ALL:
Unit tests are now merged in the CVS tree and can be run
with 'ruby install.rb test'.

I think BioRuby still compatible with Ruby 1.6.8.

How about to keep BioRuby 0.6 series with support for Ruby 1.6,
and preparing 0.7 series which may require >=1.8.1?

I'm fine even if the unit tests fails with Ruby 1.6 during the
above transition, as far as the BioRuby library can be installed
and used with Ruby 1.6.

Thanks,
Toshiaki Katayama
