I've got great news then: you can make the jump to RoR today! :)

This news isn't about Rails implementing its own background queue, but rather creating a unified API for interacting with background queuing systems; of which there are many. Resque (crafted at GitHub [1]) is probably the most popular: https://github.com/defunkt/resque.

There's also a PHP port of Resque that's fully compatible with the Ruby resque web interface - https://github.com/chrisboulton/php-resque

I've used it in production for a few different projects and highly recommend it (both the PHP and Ruby versions).
