Feature #5826: When the RUBY API_VERSION will be increased?

• Status: Closed
• Assignee: matz (Yukihiro Matsumoto)
• Target version: 2.0.0

I think RUBY_API_VERSION should be 2.0.0 for Ruby2.0.0.
In other hand, some people might think it should stay 1.9.1 becouse Ruby2.0.0 will have backward compatibility with 1.9.

Ruby 2.0 should be new and different and not care about 1.9.x

So I think +1 here from me, because it feels consistent with the version.

But matz will decide how he wants to have it. :)

Please just bump it up now. I can imagine people want to install both
1.9.3 and 2.0.0 a while.
