I consider this change important enough for me to request SVN commit access to ruby/trunk. I will merge patches/pull requests submitted using Free/Open Source tools if nobody else has interest. My primary goal is to make it easier for Free Software zealots (like myself) to contribute to Ruby. I'll do my best to not break things for non-Free platforms and will give other committers a few days/weeks to review and test before I commit anything. My SSH public key is here: http://yhbt.net/id_rsa.pub SHA-1: adc4e096e26eff2a7f59663c54ca3623e1d38ea1 I have no GPG key and avoid real-life interactions, so no signatures. My brain is too slow for real-time/real-life interaction.
