Quick note.

Features should degrade over time. If documentation isn’t up to snuff, users will get confused and wonder, as Lt. Dangle does “What the fuck man?” Not every one needs RESTful apps and those that are just learning will find current literature lacking. For instance, scaffold_resource is dumped leaving Agile Web Development With Rails in the dust.). Buy that book next month, you’re going to wonder what the f is going on as you go through the tutorials on your freshly installed 2.0. Really, it’s a bad decision. You want to build the framework, be consistent and don’t leave beginners out to dry, they’ll just give up.
