Re: Rubicon questions

Here's my attempt at an answer:

- Is the latest CVS-versions of Rubicon and Ruby supposed to "agree" ?
  ( ie. give no errors )
----Ideally, but it doesn't.  It needs work.  There are many incompatibilities introduced in the 1.8 Ruby work which still need to be fitted into Rubicon

-Are the Rubicon tests supposed to "agree" with old versions of Ruby in this way?  If so, how many old versions and which versions ?
----Yes.  The Version.greater_or_equal type stuff was added primarily for Ruby 1.7.x.  I don't know of any plans to try to go back to pre-1.6.  Ideally, this functionality should be used minimally, but that all depends on which direction Ruby itself goes in terms of compatibility.

I'm sure that any help on Rubicon would be welcome, but it's Dave's baby (he's out of town, I believe).

Have you seen triple-r?
