Ruby master - Feature #16752: :private param for const_set

I somewhat agree with sawa here.This may still leave the issue over whether one may prefer a single line/method call, but I believe this may largely depend on the use case more (if there is one). I can...

Ruby master - Feature #16754: Pager for `--help`

I think the basic idea for the suggestion is fine.There may be cases where the ruby user may prefer to not use (or depend) on a page and may be fine with a long message output from --help. This may...

Ruby master - Feature #16754: Pager for `--help`

Oh... I just noticed in the code, I think that is the environment variable?My C knowledge is so bad, but I guess getenv() indicates that. :Dconstchar*pager_env=getenv("RUBY_PAGER");

Ruby master - Feature #16755: warning: `if' at the end of line without an...

You can filter the warnings by overriding Warning.warn, or using the warning gem:require 'warning' Warning.ignore(/`(els)?if' at the end of line without an expression/) That's pretty cool! I did not...

Ruby master - Misc #16778: Should we stop vendoring default gems code?

I believe that all of that kind of defeats the point of "gemification" of the standard library.If I remember correctly then this was not the only reason made in favour of gemifying core. One, for...

Ruby master - Feature #16786: Light-weight scheduler for improved concurrency.

One issue I see is that this adds another API (Scheduler) for people to have to remember. They will have to know how/when to use Mutex, Thread, Fibers, perhaps Guilds, and now Scheduler.Is this really...

Ruby master - Feature #16791: Shortcut for Process::Status.exitstatus

This is not a good feature request, IMO.There is not really any explanation as to what the idea is about. Why is p pid and s existatus suddenly? And why should that be common if one can already extend...

Ruby master - Feature #16794: Rightward operators

It's an interesting idea. I am not sure if I can easily adjust to the syntax, but this may be best to just ask matz directly (I think he suggested the pipeline operator, and streem kind of also taps...

Ruby master - Feature #16818: Rename `Range#%` to `Range#/`

I somewhat agree with sawa's comment that % on Range may confuse some ruby folks; I think % is more typically the modulo operator? I can not say how strong this confusion may be, perhaps small, perhaps...

Ruby master - Feature #16822: Array slicing: nils and edge cases

Ruby master - Bug #16905: Ruby required to build Ruby on Haiku?
