[ANN] Syck 0.51: More tests passing, cleaner output

ruby-talk

Hello all you mangy listdwellers. A new Syck is out. Thanks to everyone who ran the unit tests and sent feedback on the last release. Things are moving!

** FOR THE ADVENTUROUS -- FOR TESTING ODYSSEYS ONLY **

Syck is the codename for the YAML processor which comes with Ruby. Coded in C with preliminary extensions in Python and PHP.

Of interest, Tim Parkin (the current maintainer of PyYaml) has been investing time into a better Python extension for Syck, coded with the help of Pyrex. He's seeing great results! I'm working to get this extension out in Syck 0.52!

Should development continue at this speed, expect the complete new YAML module to be checked into Ruby CVS in the first week of March. Faster YAML, easier to use and to customize, devoid of buffering problems that plagues the current YAML module.

Are we supposed to build our own configure script now? Release 0.50
came with one. Release 0.51 does not.

May I also suggest a toplevel MANIFEST file?

Yeah. Run: sh bootstrap.

And the tarball on RubyForge is updated.

That's the starch,
