Ruby is our preferred language. Ruby is better than shell scripts
for workflow control. Ruby is better than C++ or Java for data
manipulation. We also use Ruby for wrappers on third-party
software, as glue instead of applescript, and for build control.

I love it. Thanks for an interesting interview link.

Python? That's a large, dangerous reptile, right? :)

the irony is that sciruby is running moinmoin but, at the time i set it up, no
ruby wiki came even close to the features i needed with respect to security.
still, it __bothers__ me to no end! ;-)

Yeah ... and nothing written in Ruby comes close to the functionality of the
Moodle course management system, which is written in PHP. That's why we need
"killer apps" with defendable niches written in Ruby!
