Hi, just wondered if ruby 1.8 will ship with OSX?
As an additional question, how do you go about getting a newer
version into OSX? Do Apple just pick one?

Better ask apple on this one. I don't think they just
pick one, they probably could ask Matz though.

According to someone we spoke to at OSCON, they pick the newest stable
release at the time of their feature freeze. This probably means
1.8.1.

The Tiger preview from WWDC had 1.8.x on it (I don't remember which).

i've heard this from other apple developers as well. 1.8.x would be a
safe assumption. (finally! much current ruby code requires a 'fink
install ruby' rather than the built-in 1.6. personally, i would like
to see apple support updating their language runtimes for more than
just java via 'software update'. this includes perl, python, and
ruby.

Since Tiger doesn't actually ship until next March or April (forget which)
isn't it possible that we could still see a more up-to-date Ruby in Tiger
(1.8.2 if it doesn't already have it).

There's no solid announcement of a release/ship date. They just said first
half of next year.

Possible, but it's at least a decently up-to-date copy.

Excellent - next question then - is it time to put ruby-cocoa into the ruby
distribution?
me have win32, after all - and who uses that ?
personally, i would like
to see apple support updating their language runtimes for more than
just java via 'software update'. this includes perl, python, and
ruby.
Since they market Xcode by listing all these, I'd expect them to - oh well,
each OSX release gets a bit saner, so give them time, I guess....
