dev vrs. production dependency declarations

"Next, we'll specify in our foodie.gemspec file that rspec is a development dependency by adding this line inside the Gem::Specification block:"

Why was it added to the .gemspec and not the Gemfile? I thought you wanted the noob to adhere to placing dev dependency declarations in Gemfile?

I'm just noting what confused me when looking at the guide. Thanks for this guide!

Also, the generated .gemspec file has one line reading:
s.add_development_dependency "bundler"

So if a noob sees that line then why who said noob bother adding dev dependency declarations in the Gemfile (as suggested in the very beginning of the guide)? Just curious... it tripped me up and made me stop to think too hard.

Thanks.

Oops.

If you see #1, that focussed on a suggestion that dependencies are better placed in the gemspec always, so that if someone does gem install foodie --dev they'll receive all the gems necessary. The text at the beginning of the guide was wrong unfortunately but now it's fixed @b0466b5. Thanks!
