First of all thanks all you guys for useful discussions. Yehuda wants some concrete things I don't like on AS, so:
1) There is no reason why AS should have an executables. bin/ generate_tables is just messing my $PATH. It matter especially in bundled environment where I want to have my bin/ clean. 2) I don't like that there is a lot of stuff which should be in separate gems. For example multibyte, cache, backtrace cleaner ... basically in my opinion in AS should be just core_exts and maybe some other generic things like callbacks. I believe this is not very good design. 3) Why is locale/en.yml in lib and therefore is de facto loadable (via load 'active_support/locale/en.yml')? 1) & 3) isn't so important, the most important for me is definitely 2). In Merb, there was huge amount of gems, Rails 2 are too monolithic, it would be nice to come with some reasonable design finally :) I would really put some less generic stuff into separate gems. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Core" group.
