I also keep abreast with new changes as they are being checked into rails core each day: http://github.com/rails/rails/commits/ You've rightly pointed what/where to look. I'd also love to hear from you about "how". What I mean is static language have a good IDE support (for obvious reasons) and traversing code becomes a breeze. Since we don't have the same ease with ruby/rails (dynamic languages), what are our next best options? This is helpful.

This is like jumping into the lion's den, but its worth it. It seems a lot of people are a little afraid of Rails' internals, but having the courage to jump right in and read it has always proven a useful skill for myself. Its also helpful to know that "extend self" puts class methods on instances, or vice versa. The first time I saw that construct I was dumbfounded and amused by its terse void of meaning ;) One of my first experiences with reading the Rails code was the 1.2 router.
