Ruby community announces 1.8.x will be discontinued

Ruby community announces that Ruby 1.8.7 will be stopped developing in June 2012 and will be discontinued including any bug-fixes in June 2013.

Plans for 1.8.7

I strongly welcome this decision. And I also hope for Ruby Association that they will change their Ruby Certification from Ruby 1.8.7 tests to ruby 1.9.3 tests!
