This has been addressed by the AR team and is committed to master.
+-Infinity support for dates is slated for general release with
RoR-3.0.8.
... now if only Java would support infinite dates, too. Alas, unlike
RoR, I doubt there'll be a quick "we've fixed this, grab the next point
release" post for Java.
Not even the 3rd party JodaTime date/time library supports infinite
intervals, the +infinity date, etc, so I have to represent unbounded
intervals with some distant future date, or use null. Neither option is
very palatable.
