Congratulations! Now that the stable release is out, we will pull 1.9.1 
stdlib into JRuby. We'll ship our 1.9.1-compatible (mostly? hopefully?) 
release of JRuby 1.2 in late February.

Is 1.8.8 going to be based on 1.8.6 or 1.8.7? And is it planned to 
change as many features as 1.8.7 did?

JRuby will remain at 1.8.6 compatibility (in 1.8 mode) until such time 
that users let us know that they want support for 1.8.7+ features.
