@fabianrbz if you want to support 1.9.3 I think you should disagree, not agree? ;)

@jasonrobinson, actually I don't, but I'm ok with supporting it for a while

Run builds for Ruby 1.9.3 on Travis Closed Thu 2 Jan 2014 9:00PM
We keep running builds for Ruby 1.9.3 on Travis
Since we still want to support Ruby 1.9.3, we also shold invest the time on Travis for running builds on it.

The differences between 2.0.0 and 1.9.3 aren't that big, though on the other hand we might not notice if we break backwards compatibility.

If we support it, it's kind of obvious we need to test it. We will remove it from travis the same time we will stop supporting it.

Totally happy for the experts to decide. It sounds better to continue testing, but if there are serious performance implications, might have to drop it.

the differences aren't that big and the cost of running our test suite in 1.9.3 and 2.0 are too high in my opinion... I know we want to have backward compatibility, but I think if something breaks we will know it via github...

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.*.

no strong feelings either way ... yes, we should keep CI for a version we continue to support, but yes, we should also try not to overstress Travis' resources we're gladly using for free

OK thanks, both of you.
