Long time no minor version-up…
Here is an initial official release of a stable version ruby 1.8.
The download site will lead you to the source code ruby-1.8.0.tar.gz. Its MD5SUM is:
582a65e52598a4a1e9fce523e16e67d6
Binaries are going to be there.
Some features are changed from previous stable version ruby 1.6.x; See https://cache.ruby-lang.org/pub/ruby/1.8/changes.1.8.0.
Thank you matz, and all committers, for all your trouble!
