I had seen this one, but I wonder about the development of ruby: * Since Rite would be 2.0 and I guess bases on 1.8, what are the goals of 1.7 (which will become 1.8)? * What are the major differences between 1.6 and 1.7? When I look at the Changelog, I mostly see additions to lib/net and a lot of bug fixes (which is good of course). Maybe these are discussed on the japanese lists, but I wouldn't be able to follow them anyway :-) Regards, Paul
