In combination with the rest of the RubyInstaller team, I’m very
pleased to announce the release of RubyInstaller packages for Ruby
1.8.7-p371
As usual, installer and 7z packages are available at RubyInstaller
website and RubyForge for download:
http://rubyforge.org/frs/?group_id=167&release_id=46998
For verification, MD5 signatures of each file released are provided:

warnings.
