Ruby/Finance 0.2.2 released

The overdue task of maintenance on my code base continues.

Some time last October, Yahoo made changes to its finance site, which broke the currency conversion module of my Ruby/Finance library. I’ve finally got around to fixing this and the result is the newly released version 0.2.2.

Ruby/Finance is a partial port of Perl’s Finance::Quote. I initially wrote it so that I could track Google stock movements as the company became publicly traded, which is why it hasn’t seen a lot of expansion since first being released.

I must get around to fixing the AEX module, too, at some point, as that’s been broken for ages. That will require a large rewrite of the module, however, as the underlying service used by the module has disappeared.
