This has been a long time coming. Both MetaSearch and MetaWhere entered development as Rails 3-only gems early last year. Developing them was a great learning process, as I got to dive deeper into the innards of Rails and ARel than I ever expected, and track ARel through a complete rewrite and maintainer change, as well. The only updates you’ll notice from the last released gems are the docs (MetaSearch/MetaWhere), which should now be up to date (site docs to follow soon). It feels good to finally hit 1.0!
