> Thoughts?A most excellent idea. =r
Roger, (Luis...need you to start versioning DevKit for this to work...DevKit-3.4.5p1, DevKit-4.4.0p7, etc) I really like your idea for this page. Initially, I didn''t care for it because I thought it could easily go the way of many other postings we''ve all seen...quickly becoming outdated and unmaintained that it becomes at best unhelpful, and at worst, just plain wrong. That said, I''ve completely changed my mind and think the page is a key part of the documentation for the OCI. And I think it adds value in combination with sites like isitruby19.com. I''ve got some ideas that I think can make the page helpful and minimize the maintenance/freshness concerns as it''s clear as to WHEN and IN WHAT CONFIGURATION things were tested. Actually, it''s a super simple idea...summarize the info in a table...something along the lines of: Date | Gem | Version | OCI | RubyGems | DevKit | OS |Tester|Status| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 7/21/09 | Amalgalite | 0.10.1 | 1.9.1p129 | 1.3.4 | 3.4.5p1 | WinXP Home SP3 | Jon | OK | I''m going to find some time the next couple days to quickly mock up the wiki page to see how it looks/works. If it doesn''t work, just revert out or mod :) Thoughts? Jon
> A most excellent idea. > =rcheck it out at http://wiki.github.com/oneclick/rubyinstaller/gem-list Luis....what do we call this version of the DevKit? DevKit-3.4.5p0? i wasn''t able to capture everything for your json, eventmachine, and rubyinline summaries so you''ll need to do some tweaking-o-the-textile-code :( yes, the textile formatting is a bit of a maintenance nightmare. when rubyinstaller.org goes live this info really needs to be scraped into a db and separated from the markup.

So that''s why is called vista-special, because these patches, nothing else. I''ve indicated on the blog article which version of MySQL I did use. As for OS: I''m using right now Windows 7 full time, skipped Vista completely :-) -- Luis Lavena AREA 17 - Perfection in design is achieved not when there is nothing more to add, but rather when there is nothing more to take away.

Hi Florian. Any chance of adding mingw to your build list? That would be awesome! =r> As you can see, there is no x86-mingw32 for latest versions [of json] > > They are using rake-compiler, please someone poke Florian to add this > to his rake-compiler file: > > ext.cross_platform = [''i386-mswin32'', ''i386-mingw32'']
