Out of interest, what do you (and others) consider the "standard library"
these days?  1.8.0 saw the inclusion of several packages that were
formerly strictly "third-party", like Test::Unit and REXML.

I still tend to think of classes that "come with Ruby" as being either
built in, standard library or third party - i.e. I make a difference
between "standard library" and "standard distribution".  Perhaps this is
arbitrary.

What are you aiming to cover in the updated PickAxe?  Iff there's benefit
in receiving any help from others (e.g. ruby-doc mailing list), let us
know.

Gavin
