I've been hitting the rails blog twice a day for the last three weeks waiting for 3.1 to be released.

Lets get involved and squash some bugs!

This is a great idea. 3.1 is way more 'breaky' than I'd expect from a point release, but the new features are great. Let's make it an awesome release!

Are there any IRL hackfests for the Seattle area planned?

Not sure if you've ever checked it out, but the seattle.rb meetings on Tuesdays at Vivace on Broadway are usually well attended, and both Aaron Patterson and Eric Hodel are usually there. It's like having a superstar Ruby/Rails team at your fingertips, and everyone is super helpful.

What major issues are you having?

I'm curious as well. While I haven't upgraded any older projects, I started a new project on 3.1.rc4 several weeks ago and (besides deprecation warnings for some testing tools) have had very few problems that grabbing a newer gem couldn't fix.
