Heaps of plugins are still way behind - and big ones like paperclip are struggling to keep pace with the pull requests. I began a recent project in Rails3, but abandoned it after hitting snags with paperclip, acts_as_taggable_on and will_paginate (all of whom have rails3 branches at varying levels of completeness) I limped back to 2.3.5.

FWIW, this site was setup for just this sort of investigation - there's no QA though :) http://railsplugins.org/

Yeah, I was able to take a small project of mine and update it to Rails 3 on Ruby 1.8.7 with very little trouble. I did have to fork and modify the twitter-auth and backgroundrb plugins for the new plugin API, but once I understood the new requirements it was very easy. I am definitely targeting Rails 3 for any new projects at this point.

Like Matt says, if the plugins you are planning on using are updated, then Rails3 is a good choice. However, I recently started a project using Rails3/Ruby1.9/Ubuntu9.10, and I spent a lot of time shaving yaks, mainly with issues related to Ruby1.9. Backing down to Ruby1.8.7 seemed to go a lot smoother.

Matt plugins/gems were you planning on using?

Also, make sure to switch to Rub 1.8.7 or even better Ruby 1.9, 1.9.2 final should be released in August according to the release schedule.

What is the consensus on Rails3 production readiness? They are pretty standard CRUD apps with some pretty standard plugins?
