There are versions of ruby such as - Ruby 1.8.6-p398 Ruby 1.8.7-p330 Ruby 1.9.1-p430 Ruby 1.8.7-p249 Ruby 1.9.1-p378 Ruby 1.9.2-p0 Ruby 1.9.2-p136 ... I am wondering what the suffixes starting with p stand for. I know a, b and rc may stand for alpha, beta and release candidate respectively in some cases, but not sure about p. (Does it stand for production? Are the numbers following the p's just build nubmers?) Thank you. Su -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
