There have been 3 updates of Rails for Windows in the last 2 weeks or so.
Anybody know why? Are they platform-specific security updates or something?
Thanks, Wes
Where are you getting your updates from? As far as I can see, there has not been a new version of Rails released for windows since Dec 16th.

Hmm...I assumed just the regular gem repository. I've seen three recent versions that are > 2.0.2 with 3 or 4 digits like 2.0.2093 (not exactly, but something like that).
One thing I'm wondering about is I recently pulled down the AR adapter for SQL Server v. 1.0 (about 3 or 4 weeks ago) and I had to get that from gems.rubyonrails.org. Is it possible that now gems.rubyonrails.org is always being checked as a repository even though I'm doing a regular "gem update", and that these "point-release-lookin'" gems are coming from there?

I suspect that this is the case. I have another Windows box that I do "gem update" on and do not see these point releases of rails.
Does anyone know how to keep gems.rubyonrails.org from being searched by default for all gems? I really only want to consult it for updates to the SQL Server AR adapter.
Thanks, Wes
gem sources remove http://gems.rubyonrails.org
Actually you need to use --remove (even though you don't have to use --list to list the sources), like so:
C:\eclipse\workspace>gem sources --remove http://gems.rubyonrails.org http://gems.rubyonrails.org removed from sources
C:\eclipse\workspace>gem sources --list *** CURRENT SOURCES ***
