My Email ----------------------- On the downloads page http://www.ruby-lang.org/en/downloads/, there are links to 1.8.6 recommended versions of ruby that may not be the latest stable version for 1.8.6. I recently ran into a bug with the versions of ruby currently linked to on the download page, that was fixed in 1.8.6-p36. I was wondering if the download page should be updated to the URLS listed below. Ruby 1.8.6 Source: ftp://ftp.ruby-lang.org/pub/ruby/ruby-1.8.6-p36.tar.gz Windows 1.8.6 binary: ftp://ftp.ruby-lang.org/pub/ruby/binaries/mswin32/ruby-1.8.6-p36-i386-mswin32.zip Here is a link to a thread in comp.lang.ruby, where someone pointed out I should be using 1.8.6-p36. http://groups.google.com/group/comp.lang.ruby/browse_thread/thread/101b347655febbf0/43e0ed11f8117add?lnk=raot#43e0ed11f8117add ----------------------------- Here is the response from the web master, James. Response ------------------------------- Does any one know who put these versions up? I don't want to undo something we've done. Do we know what releases these actually are? Thanks for the information. ------------------------------- So, I'd like to put his question out to to the mailing list. Should 1.8.6-p36 be the recommended stable release for ruby?
