-ability to manage concurrent versions of libraries and dependencies
-between those libraries.  This last aspect of RubyGems is one of the
-most important to the end user, because its value is continuous as you
-use and program Ruby, but to understand its impact an explanation of
-how Ruby manages libraries is in order.
