Thanks for a nice summary.  Seems like a lot of work has been done.

So when do you want to make the switch?  I'm still not sure it's the
right time to do it as part of 9.0 release cycle, as it seems that some
of the important ports are broken and people still using 1.8 for production
(myself included).

WRT rdoc -- is there really a way to make ruby19 not install rdoc?  My
impression was that rdoc now is part of ruby and this is the way to go...

Thanks!
