Hi,

We’re working on our authoritative first release, but a prior contractor tossed out a gem under his personal name (and subsequently removed it). It didn’t work right, and we want to remove the reference to it on isitruby19 also, at least until we have a real release that we can officially support.

How do I remove reference to a gem from isitruby19?

The gem is:

http://isitruby19.com/evri

Thanks in advance for your help!

Heh – that’s not something we anticipated (there’s always something). I’ll look at it tomorrow.

Thanks much! I know a thing or two about that “always something” business.

Suggestion for automated removal: if the url is a 404, you could just reap the page entirely, keeping it fairly clean and low impact. Might not take care of every possible scenario, but it could save you some contacts.

I’ve removed the gem from the site and put a feature in our to-do list for checking 404s.
