ruby-hl7 0.2.50 released

This is a maintenance release of the ruby-hl7 library. HL7 is a standard for information exchange in hospitals, it’s used for everything from lab work to billing and scheduling. The library can parse or generate HL7 messages. Currently the library only support HL7 2.x, but I’d like to add support for the xml based HL7 3.0 in a future version.

You can install the library by typing gem install ruby-hl7. The bugtracker is hosted locally. There is a rubyforge project to store the releases.

This release is mainly a bug-fix release, here’s the list of changes:

• Modified the requires due to refactoring in facets 2.x
