FYI, Rails 3 will run on 1.8.7 or 1.9.x.
Ruby 1.8.5 is not widely used at this point. I don't think it's
unreasonable to require 1.8.6 or higher.
Cheers,
Luke

Sanitze goes a lot further. Most important feature is that it
outputs valid html. For example, it you put a </div> in your note,
it could mess up the page completely. Or a <STRONG> that is not
ended in the note with </STRONG> will mess up things too.
The dependency on ruby 1.8.6 is unfortunate though. I did not spot it.
But when we migrate to rails3 (tracks 2.1?), we need ruby 1.9 I
believe?

Hmm. This sanitize thing seems like it's causing a lot of extra work
for people. Reinier, why do we need the gem instead of Rails's built-
in sanitize?

For Ubuntu, I already had 1.8.6, but I did have to install some
extra packages for libxslt to get it to run. After I added the
libxslt1-dev, libxslt-ruby and libxslt-ruby-1.8. I am not sure that
I needed them all, but figured there was little risk to adding them.

I just discovered that I needed to install the "sanitize" gem to
keep up with the blazing development trail - but it requires ruby >=
1.8.6.
Since RedHat ship 1.8.5 with RHEL 5, a quick bit of googling was
required. This page describes nicely how to quickly and easily add
in an additional yum repo with ruby 1.8.6:

I thought that might be of use to someone other than me!
