After a few tests, moving to Rails 2.3.10 is pretty straightforward.

It breaks one test (MailHandlerTest#test_add_issue_with_japanese_keywords), because of the updated TMail (1.2.3 -> 1.2.7) vendor'd in action_mailer. The fixture email doesn't get unquoted at all. I was able to fix it by disabling TMail::Unquoter.convert_to_with_fallback_on_iso_8859_1 that is added in 1.2.7.

It seems that deprecations introduced since Rails 2.3.5 can be easily fixed as well.

Locales will be changed to use %{key} instead of {{key}}. All pending translation patches need to be committed before.

Some of us closed issues related to Rails 2.3.8 (especially ActiveRecord 2.3.8 if I remember correctly). Maybe it would be a good idea to have a look at them when the upgrade is done (#6193, #6218, #6673 at least).

For the i18n upgrade, there's already an open ticket (#6495), pointing to my tiny note in #5608.

If I can help on specific points, let me know.

It would be great if you could make sure that these errors do not occur with 2.3.10.

2.3.11 is out

Note that Mongrel 1.1.5 does not work anymore with Rails 2.3.8 or later because of 2 bugs respectively in rack 1.1.x and Mongrel 1.1.5.

See ticket 4690 in Rails tracker and ticket 5 in Mongrel's.

Until Mongrel 1.2.0 is out, it is required to add a mongrel.rb initializer to config/initializers.

Weird. I opened a new defect for this, see #7688
