Pretty dull major release in my opinion. I mean, I love rails, but this release is just merging in some popular API tools (JSON/WebSocket). As a JS guy, I didn't like TurboLinks from the get go. The Rails team has chosen to allow CoffeeScript to remain as the default JS transpiler. I think that is a mistake considering the rise of BabelJs and Typescript.
