This week we released the first release candidate version of Devise that is fully compatible with Rails 4, and we're bumping its version to 3.0. This version completely drops support for Rails 3.1 and Ruby 1.8.7, only keeping compatibility with both Rails 3.2 and Rails 4, running with Ruby 1.9.3 and 2.0.

This rc version took some time to get ready, we've been running a rails4 branch for some time already and one of the reasons was because of the changes required to make …

This has changed. There are 750 million Android devices today. Times in the IT industry change fast. Now apparently the Microsoft empire starts to decay (or at best to stagnate). The very pillars which made Microsoft successful begin to crumble. The new Windows 8 system is no longer compatible to the classic world of Microsoft Windows software.
