So on the same reasoning, why dont you go first and invest your time and
package teambox instead on questioning others people interest on archaelogy? (i
guess u have your reasons, so do we to be interested in redmine as it is right
now and to make it available to our users)

I dont think redmine will be abandoned and yes they are working on rails 3
support [2] (u can work on that too)

Also it will be so much quicker to have rails2.3 stack available for a year or
so and that would eventually empower other webapss without tweaking rubygems
stack in Fedora, not only Redmine (there are many webapps that probably will
not migrate to rails3 on the mid term) What about epel scenario?

This is not about Rails 2.x vs Rails 3.x this is about webapps that are usefull
to our users that do not work now in Fedora as it is. Redmine even running
under Rails 2.x, does not mean they can not get new features and from my
standing point of view, Redmine is probably the best project management web
application available today, and used by many (but of course im biased).

Im a regular redmine user and i really dont care about what's behind it
(talking as a user) and i keep seeing new features and developing in it. [3]

Actually we, as Fedora, are indebted with our community because the lack of
redmine availability ! I just feel we should not wait, and also, yes, bring
teambox to the game ! :)
