>> https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Ruby_2.6
>>
>> == Summary ==
>> Ruby 2.6 is the latest stable version of Ruby. Many new features and
>> improvements are included for the increasingly diverse and expanding
>> demands for Ruby. With this major update from Ruby 2.5 in Fedora 29 to
>> Ruby 2.6 in Fedora 30, Fedora becomes the superior Ruby development
>> platform.

>>
>> == Detailed Description ==
>> Ruby 2.6 is upstream's new major release of Ruby. Many new features
>> and improvements are included.
>>
>> === JIT ===
>>
>> Ruby 2.6 introduces an initial implementation of JIT (Just-in-time) compiler.
>>
>> JIT compiler aims to improve performance of any Ruby program
>> execution. Unlike ordinary JIT compilers for other languages, Ruby’s
>> JIT compiler does JIT compilation in a unique way, which prints C code
>> to a disk and spawns common C compiler process to generate native
>> code.
>>
>> The main purpose of this JIT release is to provide a chance to check
>> if it works for your platform and to find out security risks before
>> the 2.6 release. JIT compiler is supported when Ruby is built by GCC,
>> Clang, or Microsoft VC++, which needs to be available on runtime.
>> Otherwise you can’t use it for now.
>>
>> As of Ruby 2.6.0 preview3, we achieved 1.7x faster performance than
>> Ruby 2.5 on CPU-intensive non-trivial benchmark workload called
>> Optcarrot. The performance on memory-intensive workload like Rails
>> application are going to be improved as well.
>>
>> === RubyVM::AST [Experimental] ===
>>
>> Ruby 2.6 introduces `RubyVM::AST` module.
>>
>> This module has `parse` method which parses a given ruby code of
>> string and returns AST (Abstract Syntax Tree) nodes, and `parse_file`
>> method which parses a given ruby code file and returns AST nodes.
>> `RubyVM::AST::Node` class is also introduced. You can get location
>> information and children nodes from `Node` objects. This feature is
>> experimental. Compatibility of the structure of AST nodes are not
>> guaranteed.
>>
>> === New Features ===
>>
>> * Add a new alias `then` to `Kernel#yield_self`.
>> * Add `Random.bytes`.
>> * Add `Binding#source_location`.  This method returns the source
>> location of binding, a 2-element array of __FILE__ and __LINE__.
>> * Add `:exception` option to let `Kernel.#system` raise error instead
>> of returning `false`.
>> * Add a new alias then to `Kernel#yield_self`.
>> * `else` without `rescue` now causes a syntax error. [EXPERIMENTAL]
>> * Constant names may start with a non-ASCII capital letter.
>> * An endless range, (1..), is introduced. It works as it has no end.
>>
>> === Performance improvements ===
>>
>> * Speedup `Proc#call` because we don’t need to care about $SAFE any
>> more. With `lc_fizzbuzz` benchmark it makes x1.4 speed improvement.
>> * Speedup `block.call` where block is passed block parameter. Ruby 2.6
>> improves the performance of passed block calling. There can observed
>> 2.6x improvement with micro-benchmarks.
>> * Transient Heap (theap) is introduced. theap is managed heap for
>> short-living memory objects which are pointed by specific classes. For
>> example, making small and short-living Hash object is x2 faster. With
>> rdoc benchmark, 6-7% performance improvement is observed.
>>
>> === Other notable changes since 2.5 ===
>>
>> * `$SAFE` is a process global state and we can set `0` again.
>> * Passing `safe_level` to `ERB.new` is deprecated. `trim_mode` and
>> `eoutvar` arguments are changed to keyword arguments.
>> * Merged RubyGems 3.0.0.beta2.
>> * Merge Bundler as default gem.
>>
>> == Benefit to Fedora ==
>>
>> With a latest release, Ruby language is supporting the newest language
>> features, which enables even faster and easier development of Ruby
>> applications.
>>
>> == Scope ==
>> * Proposal owners:
>> ** Finish packaging of Ruby 2.6. Current changes available in PR
>> https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/ruby/pull-request/32
>> ** Rebuilding of Ruby packages providing native extensions (i.e.
>> packages which depends on libruby).
>> .
>>
>> * Other developers:
>> ** Rebuild of packages with binary extensions (i.e. packages which
>> depends on libruby) will be handled automatically, but some packages
>> might need fixes/updates to support Ruby 2.6 properly.
>>
>> * Release engineering: [https://pagure.io/releng/issue/7936 #7936]
>> ** Separate Koji tag for package rebuild will be needed.
>> * Policies and guidelines: N/A
>> * Trademark approval: N/A (not needed for this Change)
>>
>> == Upgrade/compatibility impact ==
>> * User specific Ruby binary extensions need to be rebuild.
>>
>> == How To Test ==
>> * No special hardware is needed.
>> * To test, install Ruby 2.6. The test builds are pusblished in PR or
>> on Ruby-SIG ML
>> * Try to locally rebuild your packages using Ruby 2.6.
>> * Use the packages with your applications previously written in Ruby.
>> * If something doesn't work as it should, let us know.
>>
>> == User Experience ==
>> The Ruby programs/scripts should behave as they were used to.
>>
>> == Dependencies ==
>> <pre>
>> $ dnf repoquery --disablerepo=* --enablerepo=rawhide
>> --enablerepo=rawhide-source --arch=src --whatrequires 'ruby-devel' |
>> sort | uniq | wc -l
>> 156
>> </pre>
>>
>> == Contingency Plan ==
>> * Contingency deadline: Mass Rebuild
>> * Blocks release? No
>> * Blocks product? No
>>
>> == Documentation ==
>> * [http://www.ruby-doc.org/ Help and documentation for the Ruby
>> programming language]
>> * [https://github.com/ruby/ruby/blob/v2_6_0_preview3/NEWS Ruby
>> 2.6.0.preview3 NEWS]
>>
>> == Release Notes ==
>> * The Ruby 2.6 bumps soname, therefore Ruby packages, which use binary
>> extensions, should be rebuilt. Nevertheless, since upstream paid great
>> attention to source compatibility, no changes to your code are needed.
