At the risk of seeming like a curmudgeon, I'd like to make a couple
of points here.

First, this is old news ... it broke on the 7th of September. It's important,
but it's not new.

Second, and much more important, general ruby discussion really ought
to take place on the ruby-talk mailing list. Compartmentalizing ydn-ruby
from ruby-talk cuts the ydn-ruby users off from the (vast) experience of the
ruby-talk (and comp.lang.ruby) user base. You really don't want to lose
out on that.

I'm looking forward to seeing cool things happening in the ydn-ruby
space. I'm hoping one of them will be integration with the rest of the
Ruby community.

...what is new here is this news was published in ADT magazine. I thought that the scope would also be an important thing. In Ruby that matters, anyway thanks...
