It's been almost a year since the release of Ruby 1.9.0, the first release of the Ruby 1.9.x branch. However, at the time that it was released the core team indicated that this was strictly a development release and not intended for production. Yesterday, Yuki Sonoda officially announced the availability of Ruby (MRI) 1.9.x, which is the first production-ready release of the 1.9.x branch -- exciting news!
At this point, new language features for the 1.9.x line are effectively frozen, and this is a great time for developers to dive in and learn about the changes from 1.8.x and the new idioms in place. It's also a good time to start porting any of your Ruby libraries and projects over to 1.9, and fixing any problems caused by incompatibilities between 1.8 and 1.9.
