Ruby on Rails Nears 2.0 Release

Newspaper current event by markmcb on 02 October 2007, tagged as rubyonrails, framework, release, and books

The Ruby on Rails weblog announced yesterday that the Rails 2.0 development branch is ready for public use as a preview release. Touting several enhancements to database interaction, RESTful routing, and performance, Rails 2.0 should be a major step forward for the framework. From the weblog, "We might change a few things or add something else, but by and large, this is how Rails 2.0 is going to look and feel. After this release have [sic] had a chance to be tried out, we’re going to move to a release candidate or two (or three, depending on how many we need). Then, the final release."

Additionally, for those new to Rails, the weblog also mentioned a free book offer. Patrick Lenz's Build Your Own Ruby on Rails Web Applications will be available for download from Sitepoint for the next 60 days.
