supporting 1.9.3 in travis is fine by me, but I think we should remove that in the release after this one

I'd totally vote against it in favour of a easy ruby installation via the systems package manager.

But as 2.0 has sooo many improvements, I'd be fine with dropping 1.9.*.

Upcoming proposals:

  • Drop support for Ruby 1.9.3
  • Run Travis builds for both, Ruby 1.9.3 and 2.0.0

Hmm...DenSchub makes a good point though.

@dennisschubert this is about supporting 2.0.0 and doing it in the next release. Dropping support for 1.9.3 will be the next proposal.

Given the history of Ruby support in various distributions, I think we should support Ruby 1.9.3 at least until its official maintenance is phased out or the major distributions have Ruby 2 available in their repositories.
