Until earlier this week, I was under the impression that no version of Ruby 1.9 would not be released as a production version. Ruby Kaigi 2006 has a statement from Matz that indicates that this will not be the case. Ruby 1.9.1 will be released as a production version for Christmas ... 2007. This information is from RedHanded. Additionally, the Ruby website is currently undergoing a transition. If it's not being updated often, it's because people are working -- in their *copious* spare time -- on preparing a new visual identity. > I furthermore believe it is stupid to say something like: "Hey you > really need a link there or there" On the other hand I believe it > clever, not offensive and correct to ask: "Could somebody kindly give > some evidence about the future development of ruby"... ... which I am > hereby doing. The best thing to do this is to look at Mauricio Fernandez's eigenclass blog. He's keeping on top of it. -austin -- Austin Ziegler * halostatue@gmail.com * http://www.halostatue.ca/ * austin@halostatue.ca * http://www.halostatue.ca/feed/ * austin@zieglers.ca
