ruby-dev

　ということで、 1.8.7 リリースに向けた作業を開始します。

　アナウンスに書いた通り、 1.8.6 からだいぶ間があいたため、これ
までに行われた変更を含めてテストしないといけないこと、 1.9 の
開発がかなり進行し、バックポートや互換性のための変更をこれから
行わねばならないことから、十分に長い準備期間を取る必要があると
判断しました。

　スケジュールに従って、まずは今月22日までにやることのリストを
まとめます。私は3/4〜10の間はおそらくろくに反応できませんが、
それ以外はこまめにチェックします。重要なメールは遠慮なくCcして
ください。

　やることがまとまったら、個々のタスクは Tracker で管理します。

　それでは、よろしくお願いします。
