## RSpec-2.0.0 has been released! This marks the end of a year-long effort that improves RSpec in a number of ways, including modularity, cleaner code, and much better integration with Rails-3 than was possible before (see http://blog.davidchelimsky.net/2010/01/25/rspec-20-in-the-works/).
### Docs, with a little bit of relish In addition to the documentation available at all the places (see http://blog.davidchelimsky.net/2010/07/01/rspec-2-documentation/), we've also got all of the Cucumber features posted to Justin Ko's new Cucumber presentation app, relish. http://relishapp.com/rspec We'll also have the RDoc up on http://rdoc.info in a day or so. ### Thanks! Big thanks to 80+ contributors who submitted patches for RSpec-2.0.0, including [1]: Aan, Adam Walters, Akira Matsuda, Alex Crichton, Anderson Dias, Andre Arko, Andreas Neuhaus, Ashley Moran, Ben Armston, Ben Rady, Brasten Sager, Brian J Reath, Carlhuda, Chad Humphries, Charles Lowell, Chris Redinger, Chuck Remes, Corey Ehmke, Corey Haines, Dan Peterson, Dave Newman, David Genord II, David S.

Their work here has significantly reduced the risk that Rails point-releases will break rspec-rails. * Myron Marston for a wealth of thoughtful contributions including Cucumber features that we can all learn from * Justin Ko for his direct contributions to rspec, and for relish (http://relishapp.com/), which makes executable documentation act more like documentation. ### What's next? #### rspec-rails-2 for rails-2 There are a couple of projects floating around that support rspec-2 and rails-2. I haven't had the chance to review any of these myself, but my hope is that we'll have be an official rspec-2 for rails-2 gem in the coming months. #### rspec-1 maintenance rspec-1 will continue to get maintenance releases, but these will be restricted, primarily, to bug fixes. Any new features will go into rspec-2, and will likely not be back-ported.
