I’ve just uploaded RMagick 2.3.0 for Windows to RubyForge  
[[http://rubyforge.org/projects/rmagick/](http://rubyforge.org/projects/rmagick/)]. Please allow a few hours for  
the mirrors to be updated.

Here’s the ChangeLog for the changes since the previous release of  
RMagick for Windows:

RMagick 2.3.0  
o Added Image#encipher, Image#decipher (available with  
ImageMagick 6.3.8-6)

CompressionType enums (available in ImageMagick 6.3.9-4)  
o Added optional “use hex format” argument to Pixel#to\_color  
o Support :area resource type in Magick.limit\_resource  
o Pixel.from\_HSL and Pixel#to\_HSL are deprecated. Use  
Pixel.from\_hsla and Pixel#to\_hsla instead. The new methods rely  
on  
the ImageMagick 6.3.5 and later API.

deprecated and will not be supported in a future release.
