Subject: [ruby-core:51523] [ruby-trunk - Bug #6820] Time#to_s on NEWS


Issue #6820 has been updated by zzak (Zachary Scott).


I think this is a bug on Time#to_s, not NEWS.

From #5226:

Can we change description?

Bug #6820: Time#to_s on NEWS

=begin
The Time section on NEWS file says an encoding of Time#to_s respects Encoding.default_internal,
but r33094 says it is always US-ASCII. I guess NEWS file is incorrect.
See also #5226.

 $ ruby -E:utf-8 -ve 'p Encoding.default_internal, Time.now.to_s.encoding'
 ruby 2.0.0dev (2012-08-01 trunk 36587) [x86_64-linux]
 #<Encoding:UTF-8>
 #<Encoding:US-ASCII>
=end
