Rails 2.0 is go
Tons of new stuff, my favorite is Cookie store sessions
The default session store in Rails 2.0 is now a cookie-based one. That means sessions are no longer stored on the file system or in the database, but kept by the client in a hashed form that can’t be forged. This makes it not only a lot faster than traditional session stores, but also makes it zero maintenance. There’s no cron job needed to clear out the sessions and your server won’t crash because you forgot and suddenly had 500K files in tmp/session.

Have You enabled swf uploading with cookie based session? I’ve written a special hack for it.
