Hi,

I don't really care what we choose to name the next versions, so I'll talk about them as 1.1.2, 1.2 and 2.0 respectively. It's possible the 1.2 and 2.0 is the same.

I would like to get the discussion going about what we should aim for in the future. I'm going to collect the goals I remember, and divide them into near term and long term. My goal is for us to actually have a real road map we can follow.

1.1.2: (3-5 weeks from now?)
- general bug fixes
- serial numbers for classes or method named, used for flushing caches
- respond_to? call site (based on above)

1.2: (July?)
- greatly improved Rails performance
- 1.8.7 compatibility
- Rubinius simplified support
- AOT compiler ready enough to actually be usable, including tool support
- VM API implementation

2.0: (Fall?)
- Full 1.9 compatibility
- Full Rubinius support
- Java integration totally rewritten
- Light weights (not only in JI)?

It feels like it would be really nice to have a real timeline for features like this.

Cheers
