I have been using RVM, Homebrew and POW in combination with projects using Rails 2.3.11 retrofitted with Bundler and then separate projects using Rails 3.0.x. Between my homebrew installs of MySQL, POW and passenger issues depending on whether you use RVM and/or try to use Rails 2.3.11.... It has been fun to say the least. I have some issues with the Mysql gem with one of my gemsets and have been trying to see why one of my sites will run under RVM system, but not correctly under the RVM gemset I created for the app. I was hoping to clean up my system gems and move towards using more RVM sets but sometimes you break more than you cleanup. In the end, I will probably leave my system intact and use RVM for new projects going forward. Still, there is the part of my brain that wonders why Rails 1.2.6 and 2.2.2 are installed in their current locations. I have a tendency to poke around places that were not meant to be poked in it seems.
