supporting 1.9.3 in travis is fine by me, but I think we should remove that in the release after this one

I'd totally vote against it in favour of a easy ruby installation via the systems package manager.
But as 2.0 has sooo many improvements, I'd be fine with dropping 1.9.*.

Hmm...DenSchub makes a good point though.

@dennisschubert this is about supporting 2.0.0 and doing it in the next release. Dropping support for 1.9.3 will be the next proposal.

@jonnehass crap. excuse me.

Okay, I think that's clear already. Lets move to the more controversial stuff.

Given the history of Ruby support in various distributions, I think we should support Ruby 1.9.3 at least until its official maintenance is phased out or the major distributions have Ruby 2 available in their repositories.
