Re: Did I get this RSpec folder info wrong or has it changed?

I think it is fine as is. I just wanted to make sure I got the wording 
correct. There are so few directories that its being there is very 
noticeable. The only place where I see an issue is with older versions 
of RSpec in conjunction with ZenTest's autotest. In RSpec 1.1.5 and 
later, the absence or presence of this folder makes no difference. 
Instead you use an environment variable to make Autotest run the spec 
tests. At least that is how it works for me.
