[ANN] Ruby 1.9.0 is released

[Patrick Aljord]

We are happy to announce of the release of the 1.9.0 the development
release. You can fetch it from: [...]

Is this a stable release? Is it intended for production development
like 1.8 was?

"the development release"

As stated at rubyconf and elsewhere, this is a development release. It
is not as solid as 1.8 currently is.

It is probably not a good idea to roll out a "dot zero" of _anything_
into production (eg, I'll NEVER roll out a dot zero (or for that
matter, a dot one) of rails to my production envs).

 

[Mikel Lindsaar]

But let us rest for a while.

You have earned it Matz! Thank you so very much for your fun language!

We welcome volunteers.

Good idea! I will.

Could you point out some areas that are in dire need of documentation?
I've been wanting to get involved with Ruby core documentation but
haven't had a discrete task list to concentrate on.

Hi,

In message "Re: Ruby 1.9.0 is released"

|Great christmas gift! Thanks for guys hard worked.

We worked hard. But it's just a beginning. We still need to do a lot
of work on 1.9:

* preparing more detailed document of 1.9 changes than the current
doc/NEWS.

* some gems for obsolete and lost libraries, e.g. base64.

* migration path (and tools) from 1.8.

* document, document, document.

But let us rest for a while. We welcome volunteers.

How about updating doc/NEWS file, and sending patches to
<[email protected]> list? Or we can set up Wiki pages for
cooperate documentation writing.

I don't think ubuntu updates to new versions of software after the
initial release unless it's a bugfix release. I think Nei Kai would
have to compile Ruby 1.9.0 to get it.

Hi,

On this page:
http://www.ruby-lang.org/en/downloads/

The 1.9.0 Windows Binary download link is broken. The Christmas Day 2007
Windows binaries appear to be here:
ftp://ftp.ruby-lang.org/pub/ruby/binaries/mswin32/unstable/

I just wanted to let you guys know about this. 1.9.0 has been very fun
to experiment with so far. Thanks again for the great work!
