I don't know if those are showstoppers compared to the other bugs, but
they are regressions and may be people find harsh for web2.0 dev.

* http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/JRUBY-1222
Preventing to make a simple HTTPS get. In my rails app, this prevents
me from updating Del.icio.us tags and this is a real web2.0 annoyance
in general as many web2.0 services tend to protect their restful api
by HTTPS. This is also a regression since it worked  better some
months ago (was inconsistent so you could work arround by retrying
until it worked, now it totally broken).

* http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/JRUBY-1878
Preventing to call OS commands properly from JRuby. Specifically it
prevents me from sending mails using GMail via MSMTP in my Rails app.
Again a big web2.0 trouble I can't work around so far (since openssl
isn't that reliable to send mails either and also very slow compared
to loading an msmtp server). Again this is a regression it was working
some months ago.

In any case, big congrats to the JRuby team. I really believe JRoR is
going to take J2EE by storm.

Raphaël Valyi.
