Guys. The name-calling, comparing of e-penises and general abusiveness stops now.
You are mature members of the Ruby community and I would expect you to act that way. What ever happened to MINASWAN (Matz Is Nice Always So We Are Nice)? I'd expect this kind of behaviour from a PHP mailing list. I respect the fact that you've been told that the release is "Any Time Soon"(tm) and "Real Soon Now, Seriously!"(tm), but things come up that stop the release from happening and postpone it. If you want to know what's holding up this release, check out the Rails lighthouse and the Bundler tracker. To the best of my knowledge, there will not be a Rails release candidate released until there is a Bundler release candidate. This is purely speculation on my part, but it makes perfect sense to me, and hopefully to you. We've all been waiting a while for this release to come out. But what is stopping you from using it right now? What makes the label of "release candidate" so much more appealing when the difference between it and right now could be 1 single documentation commit? There is absolutely nothing stopping you from using it. So I encourage all of you to: 1) Co-operate and act like respectable members of the community like you all really are, not shit-flinging monkeys. and 2) Try porting over one of your applications this weekend to Rails 3. It's really not that difficult. I have a friend, Chris Darroch, who's helping me port rboard http://github.com/radar/rboard to Rails 3. Check out the progress on the rails3 branch. As far as I know, we haven't ran into a single Rails bug. All of our problems are because of something we've done or because we needed to use a newer version of a plugin (named_scope instead of just scope, for example). If you want Rails 3 to be the best it can be, you can help by doing this one small thing. Port your application and see if there's any bugs with it and if they are, report them. I would hope the core team acts in a better attitude than seen in this thread (but it's understandable, given the ungratefulness witnessed) and help you to help us help you. Enough fighting. I don't want to be a part of a community where people fight over something so... irrelevant. We are *the best* community on the web. Let's not tarnish that reputation by repeating the actions of this thread. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
