Rails 3.1 and Ruby EE

Question

Since Rails 3.1 strongly recommends that it be installed with Ruby 1.9.2. But what about Ruby Enterprise Edition support? Ruby EE seems to be in the 1.8.x version, so I guess this means that future rails updates won't be working so well with it?

Answer 1

it's only a recommendation (and I suggest it too), because as you may know, 1.9.2 is the most recent version.

you can still use REE for your 3.1 rails app, but keep in mind that some day you'll be forced to switch to a newer ruby interpreter, and it's not a painless task (even if you have a decent test coverage).

if it's about a passenger matter, don't worry, it will work on 1.9.2 too ;)
