Could you, please, provide a http location?

It's the 21st century, IP address shortage, NAT, ..

Any reason why this is throttled to 2K/sec ? At this rate the next
version will be out before my download completes.

Mirrors?

Tried, works.

However, having that in the message to start with would be somewhat
more helpful.

Unlike binary newsgroups bittorrent is quite well designed bandwidth

I got that beat. I am right now compiling it thru Windows Vista onto a 1 Gig
Flash drive, for the hell of it. I expect the next version to be out before my
tar xfj completes! (-:

(BTW I'm also actually using it, remotely on a Linux server, and it works fine
so far...)

Just wondering if there are Windows binaries yet. Is this compiled on
Windows using MinGW or VC++ 6?

I checked the FTP directories on ruby-lang:
ftp://ftp.ruby-lang.org/pub/ruby/binaries/mswin32/unstable/
ftp://ftp.ruby-lang.org/pub/ruby/binaries/mingw/1.9/
ftp://ftp.ruby-lang.org/pub/ruby/binaries/djgpp/1.9/
..and all don't have it yet.

Cheers,
Mohit.

Binaries built with VC6 usually can be found here:

http://www.garbagecollect.jp/ruby/mswin32/en/

No news yet.

Builds with MinGW are coming, still several things to iron on the
build process for both 1.8.6 and 1.9.1, will do a proper announcement
when crack that down.

I must admit I've never downloaded from bittorrent at 2.5Mb/sec before.

arton build an installer package for windows. [ruby-list:45759]

Ruby 1.9 currently does not support djgpp. We need help for threading
support on djgpp.

I'm trying to make one of my libraries run on this rc, and ran into this
difference from 1.8:

% touch afile
% irb
> open('asdf', 'rb') { |f| f.flush }
IOError: not opened for writing
..
% irb1.9
open('asdf', 'rb') { |f| f.flush }
=> #<File:asdf (closed)>
%

Is this intentional? I was previously abusing this as a way to find out
if an arbitrary io object was writeable. Perhaps theres a better way in
1.9?

Also if there's somewhere else one should turn to for 1.8 -> 1.9
questions please let me know...

Thanks,

Charles

Do you have more details about that package? build scripts used?

Even I trust Ruby, I cannot trust too much in packages all written in
japanesse and flashes command prompt windows while installing.
