General Development Ruby on Rails 2.0 has been released. "Rails 2.0 is finally finished after about a year in the making. This is a fantastic release that's absolutely stuffed with great new features, loads of fixes, and an incredible amount of polish. We've even taken a fair bit of cruft out to make the whole package more coherent and lean." On Zenbits, they give tips on how to install 2.0.

@openwookie: Rails 2.0 is definitely a welcome upgrade from previous versions. Even the view helpers alone feel much more intuitive than the 1.2.x series.

I'm also a merbivore like yourself. If Rails was rewritten from scratch with all of the lessons learned over the past 3 years you would pretty much have what merb is today. What excites me the most is you get rails-like functionality at twice the speed and 1/2 the memory usage.
