Here’s a list of the major new features in Rails v2.3 (most recent first):

Rails 2.3 Features

The next scheduled release appears to be the 3.0 release, the merger of Rails and Merb. The core team has alluded to at least a preview release to be ready by RailsConf 2009. Seems a bit aggressive for all the internal tinkering in store, but stay here for for the latest.

You should also check out the Rails 2.3 release notes for the ‘official’ rundown of new features for 2.3.

    Why are you saying Rails 2.3 released? This is RC1 and DHH says it will be a while for testing. The title seems to be a bit misleading…just sayin’.

    Great 2.3 coverage BTW, look forward to all the posts.

    The first link - Nested Model Assignment - is broken… gives me an “uh oh” page.
