To clarify a bit: I'm not telling that a patchlevel release should be done 
every time a bug is fixed in subversion. Minor bugs (like #9376) really don't 
have to force a release. I personally feel a currently-released Ruby with a 
broken threading library should not last for more than a week (the fact that 
I'm depending on the threading library which is broken since 1.8.6 has 
nothing to do with this of course ;-))

That being said, I know that managing releases on something like Ruby is far 
from being an easy task. I just wanted to see everyone's point of view about 
that.

Regards,
Sylvain
