Title: Upgrading gems so we're able to install in Ubuntu 12.04 without modifications

Hi,

The main problems that I've found were:
* Gems that aren't available anymore;
* Cucumber 0.8.5 depends on an old gherkins version, that doesn't compile on gcc-4.6;
* Redis gem doesn't work with newer versions of redis (2.2.x).

All three are fixed, and tests still pass.

The other gems are also very old (https://gemnasium.com/vitorbaptista/pairwise-api), but they're working in the latest Ubuntu, so I haven't upgraded. But it might be good, specially RSpec and formtastic. Also, it would be good to use gem versions from rubygems, instead of from github repostiories. There're still low-hanging fruits that I could pick, if you agree.

Cheers!
Vítor.
