In the IR crew's defense, there is a lot you can do with IronRuby right now, that isn't practical otherwise. Sure the ruby libraries are great, and running Rails on .NET is cool. But I'm a .NET programmer, I don't really care that much about the ruby framework, I want the language in MY apps.
The .NET interop in IronRuby really works well, and makes a great way to control mountains of .NET code dynamically with a much more elegant language. Good job guys! On one level I agree though... It's about time for a binary release. It's hard to convince other people to look at something you have to grab from SVN and compile. Beta, alpha or CTP, I don't really care. -Eric On Tue, Feb 26, 2008 at 11:25 PM, Web Reservoir <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi, > > I was expecting a rapid growth on IronRuby keeping following things in > my mind which i had preserved so far. > > (1) Ruby.Net code ( partially ) was licensed by MS to incorporate in to > IronRuby > > (2) IronRuby was announced in last year Mix 2007 event ( almost a year > now ) > > (3) It was decided to place IronRuby on RubyForge for great support.. > > Even with all this aspects...
