Subject: Re: time to back peddle? (Ruby 1.8.7)

As you may know Ruby 1.8.7 don't compatable with 
Rails(http://www.rubyonrails.org/down)
We recommend Ruby 1.8.6 for use with Rails. Ruby 1.8.7, 1.8.5, 1.8.4 and 
1.8.2 are still usable too, but version 1.8.3 is not.
Ruby 1.8.7 still has some bugs to straighten out.

Step-by-step to downgrade Ruby to 1.8.6 manual
