I cant help you much myself. I am still on 1.8.7 although lately I have almost managed to upgrade to 1.9.x (I factored out incompatible yaml files with german umlauts. I don't want to be forced to use UTF-8 just because of Ruby, ISO* is fine for me. I can't be bothered to must-accept UTF-8). Unfortunately I don't know if ruby-qt is still active. Rubyforge of Qt seems to be dead. Where is QT development still happening? Is rdale still maintaining things? These kind of things should go into a homepage. For ruby-gnome, we have a homepage with lots of documentation. Ruby-qt could use that too. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
