It’s my pleasure to announce that Santiago Pastorino has joined the Rails Core group. Santiago only started contributing to Rails this year, but has been on fire ever since his first patches were accepted. He’s managed to rack up 380 c...
Ruby on Rails 2.3.9 Released
We’ve released Ruby on Rails 2.3.9 (gem and git tag) to extend the 2.3.8 bridge a few steps closer to Rails 3 and Ruby 1.9. If your app runs on Rails 2.3.9 without deprecation warnings, you’re looking good for an upgrade to Rails...
Appreciate Rails 3 with charity
Rails 3.0 is a gift from all of us who’ve worked on it to anyone who wants to build something. If you like our gift, please show it by donating to the Rails 3.0 release charity: Charity:Water. We’ve started a campaign to raise...
Rails 3.0: It’s ready!
Rails 3.0 has been underway for a good two years, so it’s with immense pleasure that we can declare it’s finally here. We’ve brought the work of more than 1,600 contributors together to make everything better, faster, cleaner, and mo...
Rails Has Great Documentation
To this day I still hear people complain that Rails has poor documentation. From where I’m sitting this seems far from the truth. Let me lay out the evidence piece by piece:

Rails 3.0: Release candidate 2

Rails 3.0: Release candidate!
High off Baltimore Pandemic and Yellow Tops, I believe we promised a release candidate shortly after RailsConf. As things usually go in open source, we gorged ourselves on fixes and improvements instead. But all to your benefit. We’ve ha...
Rails 3.0: Beta 4 now, RC in days
RailsConf 2010 is underway and what better occasion to do the final stage of the Rails 3 beta program. We’re very pleased to announce Rails 3 beta 4, which we’ll be hammering on and tuning during RailsConf.
At the end of RailsConf, ...
Ruby on Rails 2.3.8 Released
The 2.3.7 release slipped out the door too hastily. Fixing compatibility with the rails_xss plugin inadvertently forced everyone to use it. Facepalm.
I apologize for wasting a chunk of your day on installing what ought to have been a pa...
Ruby on Rails 2.3.7 Released
With the 2.3.6 release hot out of the oven, Nathan Weizenbaum began updating HAML to support it. He uncovered a couple of bugs in the HTML-safety changes backported from Rails 3, so we’re cutting a 2.3.7 release to fix them.
If you us...
Ruby on Rails 2.3.6 Released
We’ve released Ruby on Rails 2.3.6: six months of bug fixes, a handful of new features, and a strong bridge to Rails 3.
We deprecated some obscure and ancient features in Rails 2.3.6 so we could cut them entirely from Rails 3. If your......
Rails 3.0: Third beta release
We’re marching towards the release candidates with hurried steps, but along the way we stopped by for another beta. This one spins out a few overdue extractions into plugins (see http://github.com/rails/verification and http://github.com...
