Title: Session 6 homework

For the first exercise: http://www.cvedetails.com/vulnerability-list/vendor_id-4954/product_id-8446/version_id-116920/Ruby-On-Rails-Ruby-On-Rails-3.1.1.html . I wasn't sure to which version the exercise wanted to have rails updated so I just figured Rails ~> 3.2 couldn't hurt.

Since I've been developing rails on a Windows operating system for the past few months, I'm pretty much tied down to RailsInstaller. As luck would have it, I'm already up-to-date in terms of Ruby version for RailsInstaller =P. The version checking was kind of difficult. I got lucky with google on that one.

Regarding multiple Ruby version. It can become very messy if there are other Ruby related installation on this same Windows machine. Last time I had Heroku installed for the previous team assignment. I did not notice it had messed up with the environment path of Windows that was set up by RailsInstaller until I started doing Rails project. This basically caused me whole lot of time to get the damages undone (uninstall everything related to Ruby, clear any environment varialbes hinting slightest bit of Ruby and re-install with RailsInstaller). So I'm kind of iffy about using RVM on Windows until some sort of official support/release is provided to work with RVM and RailsInstaller =S.
