THREE HUNDRED!

[Ryan Davis]

I just finished my release flood and we cracked release #300!

We're now up to 321 (we started at 297)! Buy stuff off my amazon
wishlist or I'll keep releasing until all your mailboxes fill up!

Isn't that kind-of bad netiquette? Perhaps you are half kidding. Sorry if I
don't get it.

I fear change. Could you please stop improving your software and just
write it correctly the first time? Thanks.

Yeah, really. And you think yourself a programmer. I myself never write
tests, cause it always just works.

John,

Even if that were possible, I fear it would require a level of
dedication to TDD that Ryan simply doesn't possess.

While all those packages are outstanding and/or ground-breaking, I
personally think that the RSS feed @ rubyforge or some ruby news
aggregator site would be more appropriate for announcing updates of
well-known & essential packages.

I prefer new and interesting packages to well-known and essential packages.
The latter can be handled automatically through RubyGems because all the
ones I care about I already have installed. The former: well, I want to
hear about them because I don't have them installed!

NO. You want to talk to the largest crowd. It's a marketing problem. ~t.

Sorry, release announcements have been happening here for years.

PS: I may have even argued against them, but I'm too lazy to check the
archives.

Yup, and 300+ is just "bloat". Can't you wrap them up in a single
instance?

approval?

Approved. Yet, I'd prefer a dedicated ruby-announcements list that
comprises ruby-related announcments/news from sourceforge, rubyforge,
github etc.

Seems like you could pretty easily filter this stuff yourself, since
every recent release announcement on ruby-talk has "[ANN]" in the
subject.

Yes, though I don't like the traffic, I was more pointing out the unabashed
statement of knowingly making traffic when it is obvious other things could be
done, by your own statement of how much it was. I think typical netiquette
stuff implies intentions as well. Anyhow, you might just think about a
compilation with an explanation. I would be more likely to read such a thing,
as I will not look at these for now because it is too much to mess with. I do
presume you have good intent and want to be helpful though.

Sincerely, Xeno

Well, it probably took some years to reach 300. How many emails have
*you* written in that time?
