Hi guys,

I could have done my research a little better.  Kenneth's ruote-kit
seems like exactly what I'm looking forward to.

Hooks are in the nature of ruote's "real" / external participants,
aren't they?  With ruote-kit being a restful http service we've got
the http-in.  Shouldn't it be able to http-out as well?  Without
requiring a ruote-http gem (the non-proliferation point).  It seems to
me ruote-kit is going to be fit for webhooks anyway :)

Wouldn't you want priority for the workitems?  Perhaps a couple of
queues - one for _asap_ and one for _whenever_.  Some protocols and
type of use (e.g. XMPP or AMQP) may often need better response time
than let's say email notifications, but explicitly requesting it could
be part of the DSL.  Perhaps several levels, because it could be
something people pay for - priority processing for whoever needs /
deserves it most.  And if ruote2 does have to be polled, it could be
done with ruote-kit rather than yet another layer (e.g. ruote-
hooks?).  Enentmachine is already required by daemon-kit...

You are probably much better informed than me, but I'll mention a
couple of libs just in case.  As far as the http calls - there's
http://github.com/pauldix/typhoeus - to make things less blocking...
And for storage, we could use http://github.com/wycats/moneta (that
also speaks tokyo among a wide variety of stores) - is just a hash
good enough?

Reading through ruote-kit's notes, let me ask about a couple of
points.  Isn't rails already on rack and if so what's the
"complementary" gem for hooking into rails about?  Also: completely
restful, but without all the lingo?

Thanks for the flattery about being smart.  I don't think I'm as smart
as you, certainly less experienced.  I just have a use case, using
ruote for hooks, and don't know what "walking the last mile" would be
like.  Seems like you plan to walk it anyway ;)  I'm not in a big
hurry.  I could use a development version in September / October.
Planning a production release for December.

Something caught my eye though, in the ruote-kit notes again, that I
could contribute to.  A site to share process definitions.  It can
also be a store to sell or rent process definitions that hook into 3rd
party services.  The webhook extensions / plugins.  Something that
combines with ruote-kit and makes processes available based on openid,
oauth, etc.  I feel more capable of doing this than messing with
ruote's internals...

Best,

Orlin
