The other day I was talking with some friends about Ruby 1.9. We where talking about the transition and the catch 22 of not moving over because most of the gems are not ported yet and not having time to update our gems because we''re not moving over yet. It occurred to me that there just might be a way to speed this process up for everyone. I''d like to introduce to you the Ruby 1.9 Or Bust project at http://ruby19orbust.com. The basic idea is to raise money to have a developer dedicated to porting gems to 1.9. My goal is to be able to spend 240 hours over the next 3 months moving gems, working with maintainer to foster releases shepherding patches. If you feel like this is a worth while goal please head over to http://ruby19orbust.com to read more and to pledge what you can.
