John Lam has released revision 93 to SVN. This new release now passes 1541/2468 specs (62%). Click here to see the output of all the tests.

The highlights from the commit logs :

• r89 Minor updates to Ruby to support hosting in ASP.NET
• r93 A bunch of String specs have were re-enabled since we no longer crash when parsing them
• A bunch of regex functionality (still using .NET regex) is enabled - =~, sub,gsub etc. are now implemented in this release.
• There was a split in the way the DLR is organized. Microsoft.Scripting.Core.dll is the DLR, and Microsoft.Scripting.dll are where libraries like the Math libraries for the DLR will live from now on.

John Lam has also mentioned that since the release of r93 he has bee working heavily on String, specifically the parts of String required for running Rails. He reports 70% of String required to run Rails is passing!

Thanks again to the IronRuby team, both inside and outside Microsoft for their hard work!
