For those who don't know, the Fedora 14 feature submission
deadline is one week from today, Tuesday July 13th
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/14/Schedule
I think it would be great if we can add Ruby 1.8.7 to that feature list, and I believe we
are pretty much there with the latest ruby rpm
http://mo.morsi.org/files/rpms/ruby-1.8.7.299-2.fc13.src.rpm
This latest rpm addresses all the outstanding issues so far, including various small
macro related cleanups, the readdition of the upstream ext/tk codebase, and the removal of
.tk.old (courtesy of Jim).
If there is anything I missed please shout out, else please test your software against it
extensively so that we can push it to rawhide and add the updated Ruby to the F14 feature
list before next week. To provide the lowest barrier to test Fedora / Ruby 1.8.7, I also
threw together a virtual appliance with everything (Ruby 1.8.7 and Rails 2.3.8) all setup
to go (simply launch the appliance, checkout your code on it, and test away). It can be
downloaded here

Also, once again, if you just need the updated rails rpms to test against as well, you
can find those here

Thank you. I want to try your srpm at least by Sunday.
