Re: [Rails-devel] 1.0.7-rc1 is up

[Jim B. <jim...@ya...>]

That's great guys- thanks so much!  (I'm glad my tanked NYNH was able  
to help someone.  :)

Please just let us know when you publish a new build, and I'll  
download it.  Should everyone in the game upgrade, if I save a file  
with the new version?  (Or, if I upgrade just to perform this action  
myself, can we otherwise continue without version-incompatability  
issues across our current rails-version/clients?)

best,
  - jim
