Here’s the preview you’re looking for:

[http://scottraymond.net/articles/2006/02/28/rails-1.1](http://scottraymond.net/articles/2006/02/28/rails-1.1)

It’s not every last change, but it’s all of those that I considered  
interesting.

Apologies for contributing to the meandering thread but I’ve been  
meaning to ask this:  
what is “Railties”? Is that “rail ties” as in the things that support  
the rails… the  
basic build blocks?

Yes, “railties” is sort of the deep-down glue that supports the “rails”.  
Looks to me like mostly configuration and low-level infrastructure.  
That’s been my guess though I’m not totally sure.

And now that I’ve actually made the guess out loud, no doubt someone  
else will point out that I’m quite wrong 🙂 But seriously… that’s  
what I’ve surmised as well.
