# Rails 1.0: Release Candidate 2 **URL:** \ **Category:** ruby-talk\ **Created:** [19 October 2005 19:37 UTC](https://rubytalk.org/t/rails-1-0-release-candidate-2/21714 "2005-10-19T19:37:08Z")\ **Posts on this page:** 13\ **Page:** 1

The release of 1.0 is near upon us! It has been a long time in the making, involved a heroic final sprint at RubyConf by the core team, and is a testament to how it's all been coming together over the last months. Almost three hundred bug fixes, enhancements, and new features have been introduced since 0.13.1 saw the light of day three months ago. That's on average three per day. So it's not been a while because of slacking off. But with all these changes, we want to allow for an extended release-candidate phase before we declare 1.0 a reality. So from today you can get the 1.0 RC 2, which is packaged as version 0.14.1 in the gems. Over the next two weeks or so, we're very interested in hearing about bugs and we'll likely push out a few more release candidates as more and more fixes go in. That said, we can't fix it all and we surely can't process all the pending feature enhancements for 1.0. So don't expect to see an empty Pending Patches or Faults lists. Our main objective is to stamp out the "heinous" bugs: those that significantly affect the many or those that dangerously affect the few.

Rails 0.14.1 is RC2. However, it looks like somehow only the rails gem got uploaded. I'll see if I can grab David next time he's online to upload those. For future reference, here are the specific version numbers associated with RC2:    rails 0.14.1    activesupport 1.2.1    activerecord 1.12.1    actionpack 1.10.1    actionmailer 1.1.1    actionwebservice 0.9.1 You can always grab the gems off of the RoR gem server, though:    gem install rails --source [http://gems.rubyonrails.org](http://gems.rubyonrails.org) --include-dependencies - Jamis > **···** > > On Oct 19, 2005, at 2:45 PM, Caleb Tennis wrote: > > > > You can always get them from [RubyGems.org | your community gem host](http://gems.rubyforge.org/gems/%5C). > > > Downloading them directly and installing them all at once should work > > > fine. > > > > I didn't see the RCs there.

I don't think this is possible via the "gem" command, is it? Anyway, moot point now as it's all fixed. And 1.0RC2 is now available to Gentoo users everywhere. Caleb ---

Yah, it's a consequence of gems only knowing about a single repository at a time. You need to install/upgrade rake first, using the primary gem server, and then you can use the rails gem server for the rest.
