What's the best way to keep up to date on the latest news in the Rails world?

Question

When I read some of the answers on here I notice that some people are aware of upcoming changes to Rails syntax and I'm not sure how they find out about them. What's a good source of the latest information on syntax changes or updates to Rails?

Answer 1

A Fresh Cup provides a number of links on nearly every weekday that includes information about changes to the Rails core and more.

This Week in Edge Rails is another good resource for new checkins that might be of interest.

Answer 2

The official Riding Rails blog regularly details upcoming changes (usually titled "This Week In Edge Rails") and reviews what's changed when new versions are released.

Answer 3

Or you can drink from the firehose and follow the rails project on github, and you may even get a rss feed for that.
