[BioRuby] moving to Ruby 1.8?

[Moses Hohman]

This sounds good. So, for now, don't check anything into lib that 
doesn't work with Ruby 1.6? And at some point in the future, once the 
final 0.6.* release has gone out, we'll check things in to lib that 
move toward 1.8.1, is that right? How many more 0.6.* releases are 
planned?

Or do we want to use branches in CVS to accomplish this?
