Rails - Jun 2006 - Is there an official CVS library? And, where would I put it

Two questions.  First, I''m wondering if there''s a library
already
written that will enable Ruby to interface with CVS.  I did find one 
(cvs.m17n.org/~akr/ruby-cvs/) but it''s unclear to me if that is still 
maintained.  Some download links are broken and it seems to be at 
version 0.2.  That''s why I ask if there''s an
"official" one?  Is that
it?

Second, if I want to add a ruby library to my rails application so that 
I don''t have to worry if the destination server has it, where do I put 
it?  Do I just unpack it in <rails-app>/lib?  I notice there''s
nothing
in /lib for me now so not really sure if I''m understanding it right.

Thanks!

Following up to my own question.  I see that "/vendor" is the better 
place for external libraries.  Also, the ruby-cvs package has its own 
/lib directory.  So if I copy/link those files into the /vendor area it 
appears to work!  Now the only question si whether this library is still 
maintained, or if there is a better choice out there.
