(Notes from the plane home from OOPSLA/RubyConf)

1) Irons in the fire:


  • Dave Simmons of SmallScript fame wants to work on our system to produce ST80 bytecode from ruby.

  • A number of people want to improve RI, hacks, and PT, esp for windows. This will help us get more people using them.

  • John Lam is interested for his ruby/CLR bridge.

  • A number of people wanted to look at ruby2ruby to do refactoring tools.

  • Don Roberts/John Brandt are extending their current refactoring toolset to generate entire tool suites for other languages. We should bug them for ruby in a month or so.

  • Made some good business contacts. Mainly consultants like Russ (bay area pattern's group

2) Potential new projects/demos:


  • irb state saver (done, in 8 lines)

  • r2yarv / r2st80 bytecode translator

  • stock market toys/tools

  • good demo on how to write refactoring tools for ruby

  • fucking get over it and write a ruby parser/lexer, warts and all

  • rubyholic website

  • code coverage tool

  • rule based tracing

  • release zero2rails

  • pure ruby PNG (maybe translatable to C)

  • BFTS - new name of rubicon fork
