It's not a built-in.  My hand-coded "upload" task uses Net::FTP to
upload the files.  The task has a dependency on :package (which builds
the archive files), which in turn depends on "gendoc", which generates
the documentation!  Rake was a great investment of time.  My Rakefile
also generates the RDoc for the stdlib-doc source code and uploads it
to RubyForge.  Too easy.

Thanks for the comment.

I didn't notice anything to apologise for :)
