File: Rakefile line 35

@jhilden - This is why the .gitignore file changed. I didn't remove the rdoc ignore. I just changed it from rdoc to html because I remove this line in the Rakefile. Basically the RDocTask was un-necessarily verbose so I trimmed it up. Made the following changes for the following reasons:

* Removed the description since RDocTask provides a good default description.
* Removed the task name since RDocTask provide the same task name as the default.
* Remove --inline-source since that is automatically enabled.
* Removed rdoc_dir since so it goes in the default directory of html. Since it is the default I figured it would be more standard to what people are used to.

Basically I am somewhat of a minimalist (except when writing which in that case I tend to be too verbose). This is also why I zapped the Changes.txt file in favor of people using the git log. Why maintain something when defaults and tools can do it for you? Obviously developers have different preferences on things like this. So I don't mind if you over-rule me and add things back that I find unnecessary.
