I used to run an Tracks on an FC 15 server as well. But once Tracks was compatible with 1.9.x, I just set up RVM and used 1.9.x via that mechanism. I'd really love to get Tracks up to the latest recommendation for our software stack ASAP, preferably with 2.2. It decreases the amount of work we have to do and other stuff we have to maintain ourselves (e.g. your cache_digests gem). I'm also ok with doing one last release that's 1.8.x compatible too, so my main passion around this is saving ourselves time and effort. :) > > BTW, I do not see a lot of tickets for 2.2, so we could go to 2.2RC to get > more people testing.

Let's kill the old list ourselves - as a community - by just never posting there anymore and then when bsag's hosting goes away, then the list dies.
