There are still a number of ports that don't build or work with 2.2. I'd ha= ve to test again to give you exact numbers, but it was more than a handfull of rubygem- and ruby- ports that didn't build. Also, sysutils/puppet, which is quite important to many users, doesn't support Ruby 2.2 yet (puppet 4.0 wil= l). Breaking puppet by default would be far from ideal. Switching to 2.2 as default locally and testing is encouraged. :) Steve
