1. JSON gem that DM, Chef and other extlib users use used to clash
badly with ActiveSupport's to_json implementation
2. Some other core extensions are not really semantically the same

Without hashing out those differences transition will not be made
quickly. In the meantime the best thing one can do is to figure out
state of affairs with AS's JSON serialization and come up with a
solution to problem #1. #2 can be solved by adapting DM, Chef and
other libraries code for AS.

That said, there is no opposition to using AS for DataMapper, but it
is less trivial than one may think.
