The Ruby Installer 1.8.1-12 for Windows has been released and is now
available for download from:

The previous release (1.8.1-11) had some anomalous behavior as part of the

Windows build, done entirely without cygwin.

Starting with this release, we have officially moved the Ruby Installer
project from SourceForge to RubyForge. Please report bugs (or request
features) at:

environment, and a Windows help file that contains the full text of the
book, "Programming Ruby: The Pragmatic Programmer''s Guide".

- Now using the version of REXML that is distributed
