Hello,

I summarized interesting discussions which had been posted to ruby-dev
for the past two weeks.


[ruby-dev:23864] avalue and break in C block

  Nakada suggested the following APIs, since there is no way to pass
  a block which always receives an array and to return a value using
  'break' in the C layer.
    (1) rb_iterate() for handling avalue
    (2) rb_iterate() for handling a Proc object
    (3) rb_iter_break() to return a value
  Matz replied that he had a plan to re-design specifications about
  (1) and (2) with considering multiple assignment, and he turn out
  not to be eager to improve rb_iter_break() since he doesn't want
  us to use it in the C layer.


[ruby-dev:23876] cgi, cgi/session

  Horikawa posted a set of patches to fix/improve cgi.rb and
  cgi/session.rb. He
    (1) fixed an error about Session#delete(),
    (2) added a code to validate data before doing untaint,
    (3) fixed an error when receiving an empty data from a form and
    (4) simplified CGI#[].
