What are people using Ruby for?

[Aredridel]

One area which amazingly hasn't been conquered after years and years is
the popular, widely deployed applications. Where are the Ruby Mailmans,
PHPBBs, Movable Type's, and GForges?

I'm writing a mailing list manager, there's rublog and several other
blog apps. And GForge? Why rewrite what works ;-)

Well, I'd say the group covered all the bases spectacularly!
Now I'm just upset that I don't have the energy to burn some
midnight oil on Ruby to get started now but certainly
looking forward to learning in a couple of weeks when things
settle down!

I'm pretty sure I'll be the limiting factor in my Ruby
efforts and not Ruby--but expect someone here can help
solve part of that problem as well as it crops up;-)
