Can't install gem per the README #1

When trying to install the gem via bundler or command line, it fails:

$ gem install Emma
ERROR:  Could not find a valid gem 'Emma' (>= 0) in any repository
ERROR:  Possible alternatives: emma

The lowercase emma gem appears to be owned by someone else.

Also when trying to install Emma using this Github repository as a source it fails as the emma.gemspec is using a lowercase emma. I'd recommend using lower case in the README.md as lowercase is convention.

Also since emma and my_emma are taken I'd recommend using emma_wrapper_ruby. You could use dashes as well but generally dashes are for subcategories of a specific gem (e.g. pry-remote or rack-protection) where underscores separate a multi-word gem (e.g. will_paginate or strong_parameters).

Thanks!

This is a problem. hmm. For right now, I'd require it via bundler:

gem 'Emma', :github => "myemma/EmmaRuby"

I'm surprised no one has made more noise about this.
The next time I run into an emma employee, I'll point this out.

it should be a lowercase 'e'

gem 'emma', :github => "myemma/EmmaRuby"
