Rails 4.0 around the corner

Can someone please clarify what justifies the 3.2 -&#62; 4.0? I don't see a big change, isn't this more like a 3.2 -&#62; 3.3?

Do you think Rails is still fun and are you enjoying coding in Rails?

Have they announced a release date target?

Rails 4.0 might be out by the end of the year, but that's outside of my definition of "around the corner".

Upgrading our rails-2.3/ruby-1.8 website any day now.

Any word on performance?
