[ANN] Ruby 1.9.1 is released

[Jayce Meade]

You can get binaries of PDCurses, GDBM, OpenSSL, readline and Zlib at
Porting Libraries to Win32.

http://jarp.does.notwork.org/win32/ is the link it gives for that, but my
browsers won't connect. Is anyone else having that problem?

Got a few errors... figured it was due to uninstalled gems but the
zlib.dll
thing is cropping up again. How do I fix this?

If you are searching for win32 binaries of ruby1.9, this can help you:

Thanks to all the Ruby's team development for their incredible job.

Regards,
Andrés

You guys never read the instructions:

http://www.garbagecollect.jp/ruby/mswin32/en/documents/install.html

If you're installing garbage collect releases, you need to follow
these rules.

I also cannot reach this. Trying to "ping" (61.197.191.146) leads to
lost packages.

Hi,

I also cannot reach this. Trying to "ping" (61.197.191.146) leads to
lost packages.

The hard disk was crashed two days ago.
Wait patiently.

hi list,
we are currently preparing Ruby 1.9.1-p0 and 1.8.7-p72 binary packages
for Mac OSX (Leopard, Tiger, Panther and below also supported). I'll
keep you all posted when the final packages are ready.
Project page: http://rubyosx.com

regards,
matthias

 

[Ollivier Robert]

A huge thanks to all of ruby-core for this, and for your hard work on
release management, Yugui.

Kudos to the team!

Is there a possibility that Ruby 1.8.8 will go back to being similar
to 1.8.6 and remove the 1.9 compatibility shims?
This would make maintaining old 1.8 code much easier.

I second that.

Hi, folks.

I am proud to announce the release of Ruby 1.9.1. This is the first
stable release of Ruby 1.9 series.

Ruby 1.9 is a new series of Ruby. It is modern, faster, with clearer
syntax, multilingualized and much improved version of Ruby. Ruby 1.8
series has been used since 2003 and many great products were born on it.
Today Ruby 1.9 series starts its history as 1.8 series did.

Notice that Ruby 1.8 still remains. 1.8.8 will be released this year.

== Changes
You can read about major chanes since 1.8.7 at at
http://svn.ruby-lang.org/repos/ruby/tags/v1_9_1_0/NEWS .

We have fixed 7 bugs since 1.9.1 RC2.
http://redmine.ruby-lang.org/projects/ruby-19/issues?query_id=11

If you encounter any bugs or any problems, please let us know it via the
official issue tracking system (http://redmine.ruby-lang.org ).

Hi,
I'm a kind of confused. It seem as this is the first production
release (p0) and therefore it would be the latest Ruby stable
distribution; but the download page at www.ruby-lang.org still shows
1.8.7-p72 as the stable and recommended one.
Do I need to wait for a final production release (somethin new for me)
or it is www.ruby-lang.org update issue.

Thanks,
Ubaldo

Sorry. I have updated the link now.

I want to thank all ruby team for this great work.
If i can say it, i'd like to have an installer for windows as it was for
the old 1.8.6
