Could you point out some areas that are in dire need of documentation? I’ve been wanting to get involved with Ruby core documentation but haven’t had a discrete task list to concentrate on. –Jeremy On Dec 25, 2007 8:44 PM, Yukihiro M.

The release was on December 25, 2007, so you’re missing 4 months of development. Hopefully the ubuntu maintainers will take some time and update their package soon. Regards, ---
