Yes ... upstream moved to SVN right around the first of the year. If you |
| 17 |
want, I'll file something in bugzilla to get the details for Ruby 1.9 |
| 18 |
into Portage as an enhancement. Most of my Rubyist friends go right to |
| 19 |
the source repositories anyhow, so I'm not sure it even needs to be in |
| 20 |
Portage at this point. 1.9 is scheduled for release around Christmas 2007. |

"jRuby" should be closely tracked, however -- they will be at 1.0 in a |
| 23 |
few weeks, I think. |
