💡 Discussion Topic: Next Major Version of the Braintree Ruby SDK

The Braintree Ruby SDK team is looking to determine what to include in our next major version release (v5). With this update we are dropping support for Ruby 2.6 and are looking for some insight on:

• Language-specific improvements that you would like to see
• Features you'd like us to consider
• Pain points you'd like to see resolutions to

🗣 Let Us Know

Please use this thread to voice your opinions, concerns, or thoughts! We'd love to know how we can make the next version better for you.

Would love to see some of the warnings cleaned up. I maintain a Rubygem called Pay that supports Braintree and our CI output is always full of warnings from the Braintree gem.

Here's an example from a recent CI run: https://github.com/pay-rails/pay/runs/8135613355?check_suite_focus=true
