Upgrading to Rails 2.1
It’s been a slow couple months, but things are shaping up for an initial release this summer. The initial launch date was sometime in July, but now the goal is by the end of August. It’s not a matter of the site being extremely complex or anything, but just getting things right the first time. It’s coming along nicely though, and I think the finished product will be worth it. At the moment I’m upgrading the core of the site from Rails ~2.0.2 to Rails 2.1, the latest and greatest. It’s requiring a few plugin upgrades, but overall it was a quick process.
