Just following up on the Denver Accord: Koichi’s promise was good and he is wrapping up his work on the recent PARALLEL branch of YARV and has updated trunk to sync with Ruby’s 1.9 HEAD. This is an enormous job (as Matz said before) Koichi is trying to keep up with a moving target and YARV significantly diverges at eval.c.

In his letter to ruby-core and yarv-dev-en, Koichi sounds very elated that finally YARV is being merged into Ruby. This means Ruby development will be moving to a new svn repository this month and that YARV will no longer be called YARV because it’ll be called by a new and wonderful name: Ruby. And then we spend the next year working on Ruby 1.9.1.

Yes, so, Koichi is in real need of testers on all platforms.

 mkdir yarv_TRUNK && cd YARV_TRUNK
 svn co http://www.atdot.net/svn/yarv/trunk yarv
 cd yarv
 autoreconf -ivf
 cd ..
 mkdir build && cd build
 ../yarv/configure --prefix=/opt/yarv
 make
 make test
 make install

Post bugs to yarv-dev-en with the word [BUG] in the subject.
