Hi - I'd just like to let everyone know I did some work yesterday on ruby-zoom to port most of the code to 1.9.2. All of the standard z39.50 features are ported. The only feature left is the packages, which allow for the extended services. I'd appreciate anyone that uses it to provide feedback. The git repository can be found here: https://github.com/bricestacey/ruby-zoom Installation: Install YAZ Clone the repo Run rake clean build package Gem install pkg/zoom-0.4.1 If anyone has experience working with C and/or YAZ and would like to help finish this port off, I'd greatly appreciate it. Otherwise, I'll probably just drop the support entirely from my fork (since I won't need it going forward anyway). I've also contacted the original authors, hopefully they follow-up.
