I mentioned that I use Ruby from CVS because the versions available from the repository aren't "real" releases, they are snapshots of the source code. This means that the version of Ruby I use may have features or bugs which other people will not see. http://www.ruby-lang.org/en/20020106.html discusses how to access the Ruby CVS repository. http://www.cvshome.org/ is the CVS home page.
