I have just moved to the edge. No more old gem installed rails for me. Ok this brings me to my new question. Ive just used freeze to install edge rails revision 5166. Is this a common practise, to install the latest version? Im considering stability, do edge users tend to use a slightly older revision eg non bleading edge ? How do you find out the best version to install ? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Edge is, almost by definition, bleeding.

Sorry for the semantics, i just want to understand this. I have to use edge rails to get the restful features. I tried and failed to get the simply_restful plugin to work. It kept throwing errors about initialisation when i tried to use the generators or start the server. So if i am to ue edge rails, what version is best for just the restful features. Basically i would like to know if those who need edge rails to be as stable as possible, what version do they use and what do they base that decision on ? adam -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

It will just grab the latest trunk from the rails svn repo. I am running on edge frozen two days ago. Usually you can just freeze edge and then if it all works for you , you just leave it frozen until you need to upgrade it to get a new feature. -Ezra --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
