Hi Should we look to do a 0.0.38 release soon? I think we should get an updated set of gems out there to show we are making progress. So if you have a moment over the next couple of days, please could you post how stable a release gem from SVN HEAD is on your OS? Linux seems OK on release, crashes in debug mode - which seem to relate to the same failed assertion from wx/event.h. Haven''t tried OS X debug, but 10.3 release seems good too. If things are looking unstable, perhaps try without Scintilla compiled in. gdb is tracing some OS X release crashes to the wxscintilla code. The 2.8.0 wxWidgets release candidate includes a newer version of Scintilla than wxscintilla from wxCode, so we could perhaps target that instead. thanks alex

I just tried clicking one of the links in the html sample and it crashed the app with the following: /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/net/http.rb:562:in `initialize'': Connection refused - connect(2) (Errno::ECONNREFUSED) from /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/net/http.rb:562:in `connect'' from /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/timeout.rb:48:in `timeout'' from /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/timeout.rb:76:in `timeout'' from /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/net/http.rb:562:in `connect'' from /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/net/http.rb:555:in `do_start'' from /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/net/http.rb:544:in `start'' from /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/net/http.rb:440:in `start'' from ./html.rb:25:in `load_page_from_uri'' from ./html.rb:24:in `load_page_from_uri'' from ./html.rb:65:in `on_link_clicked'' from ./html.rb:197 Other than that things seem to be working well.

On 2.8 I''d like to target it soon, but don''t see it as a top priority. My hope is we can support for 2.6.3 and 2.8.x side-by-side for a while, until 2.8 is mature and established in ports etc. Thank you for the report on OS X intel. Looks like I should do some work on error handling in the net code in the HTML sample. alex

My time is severely limited lately, sadly. And if I win a big contract I''ll be even busier until mid January. Let''s hope I''m busy. :) I''ve been downloading the patches and at least making sure they compile regularly.> So if you have a moment over the next couple of days, please could you > post how stable a release gem from SVN HEAD is on your OS? > > Linux seems OK on release, crashes in debug mode - which seem to relate > to the same failed assertion from wx/event.h.

Re dev process while we''re short on person-power: maybe we should relax about patch reviewing. Let''s submit only more drastic patches via email, and let small fixes to rake/swig trickle through SVN for now. Should keep things ticking over. We can cover OS X and Linux well if I focus more on Ubuntu for now. I can test a windows gem, but I''d like us to use our users better (esp on Windows, where we have lots) by giving them an updated release to report bugs against. thanks alex
