Roadmap

globalize-versioning was created because versioning support is not essential to the core functionality of Globalize, so it better belongs in its own gem. However, many issues about how to manage versioning in Globalize remain.

The first step is to extract and properly document how versioning should work. Two branches have been created with all versioning code removed from them, gut_versioning_4-0 for ActiveRecord 4 (Globalize 4.0.x) and gut_versioning-3-0 for ActiveRecord 3 (Globalize 3.0.x). Testing of globalize-versioning should be done against these branches for now -- once this gem is ready, we will merge the gutted versions of Globalize into their respective branches (master and 3-0-stable) and release new versions, update dependencies accordingly, and the separation will be complete.

For now, we will focus on AR4 support. If possible, it would be best to support both AR3 and AR4 in a single branch (as we have with globalize-accessors).

We also have to decide how to handle different versioning gems (paper_trail and vestal_versions).
