This is quite a good article I just read via a link on artima (I think).
http://www.pyrasun.com/mike/mt/archives/2005/01/09/20.57.06/
I was just thinking as I read it that it has some parallels with how I see
"the ruby community" from the perspective of an "outsider".
I won't elaborate too much, needless to say I just love Ruby, and wish I
could use it in my day-to-day job (right now, any bl**dy programming would
be good!!). I've read quite a bit recently that "Ruby is the next Java",
Java is dying etc. etc. Well good on it. And I think there are some
exceptional people, many on this list, who do a damned good job for selfles=
s
reasons to make it available to others.
It's just that, well, the actual Ruby exposure on the net is a bit weak, to
somebody like me who doesn't have the time to read every mail on the mailin=
g
list. Just simple things like a roadmap of what to expect from Ruby -
what's in the latest release for example, when's the next one, and what's
planned for 1.9? When exactly IS Rite going to be available. Is the new
super-duper website ever going to be finished?
Sorry, bit of a late night rant from somebody who cares...
