When that blog is from Mauricio Fernandez (who is most certainly *not* an idiot), you'd do best to read it. Given that 1.9 is *not* an official release, but a development sandbox, I think that it's entirely reasonable that the information about what is in it is *not* on the Ruby website. Otherwise, people who haven't got a clue would start deploying on Ruby 1.9 and then update ... and find their code doesn't work because they started depending on test features. This isn't being arrogant, Reggie. This is being realistic. Ruby 1.9 is not a production Ruby. I expect information on it to be somewhat out of date and from sources who are extremely interested in it and intimately involved in its development process. I *expect* that the information on Ruby 1.8 will be complete. > Get a clue and stop being so arrogant. I'm not being arrogant. I'm just thinking you're asking for something that is unreasonable.
