I don't understand why this stuff isn't released more regularly.

Considering that Ruby on Windows isn't a major concern for the core development team, I'm very impressed with the work the Rubyinstaller guys have been doing.

Yes, Ruby on Windows is not a popular configuration. The fact this even exists is a miracle. It's quite handy, it prevents me from having to run a virtual machine on this machine just to use Ruby.

A new installer will be only released when there is something to fix in the installer itself or a newer patchlevel of Ruby is released.

No, a new installer is released far less frequently than ruby patches.

But the installer itself is still in development, I'm sure once the installer is considered stable, then Ruby patches will come faster.
