Ruby-lang #Fork

Hi all I would like to know anyone else thought about the fork ruby and removing from it all encodings other than UTF? It is not very wise to tread on the same rake as the python

I do not understand this message.

I"l try to say,that’s now at ruby 1.9we have a real problem with force string encodings to ascii. Does anyone try to fork ruby repo,and remove all encodings but UTF.it’s remove all encoding problems and add performance for string operations (x2 memory usage and performance with conctenation,because now it’s look like : str = str.dup.force_encoding(ASCII-xxx)

*sorry for my bad English

I still don’t understand how this relates to Ruby on Rails Core, sorry.
