Back in November 2008, we opened the Public Preview for the RubyMine IDE. It has been a great success, with 10 EAP builds released and a great deal of positive and useful feedback from early adopters.

Now RubyMine is ready to go Beta, which leaves only a small step to the 1.0 release, due out before the end of April. During the homestretch we are going to concentrate on ensuring product stability.

You can read about the changes since the latest EAP build on the Release Notes page.

We made it known from the very start that RubyMine would be very affordable. In line with this, the price tag for RubyMine 1.0 has been set to $99.00. In addition, during the Beta month everyone can now get a 50% discount on RubyMine by submitting a request to JetBrains.
