I am setting up two threads in the hopes that we can see names attached to opinions about the decision to break backwards compatibility between Ruby 1.8.6 and Ruby 1.8.7+ This one is for those who wish that Ruby 1.8 would go *back* to being 1.8.6 compatible in Ruby 1.8.8. If you agree with this, share your thoughts or at least a simple '+1'. If you disagree, please find the other thread titled 'If you are happy with the direction of Ruby 1.8.7, respond'. If you are in the middle, I don't know what you should do... write two posts? My goal is to survey ruby-talk so that the core Ruby team has a chance to see what people really want. I'm curious to see if this is as one-sided as I think it is. -greg -- Technical Blaag at: http://blog.majesticseacreature.com Non-tech stuff at: http://metametta.blogspot.com "Ruby Best Practices" Book now in O'Reilly Roughcuts: http://rubybestpractices.com
