Ruby is under heavy threat to adopt this, but they have not yet to my knowledge. Here is the thread: https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/12004 Reading the thread requires a lot of attention and also face recognition. So I shall point out the actors and actresses in this conversation you should pay close attention to: Coraline Ada - https://www.patreon.com/coraline?ty=h - Please give money to her cause, as it's way more important than the poor folk who work to make PostgreSQL better for free and never ask you for a dime Kurtis Rainbolt-Greene - https://twitter.com/krainboltgreene/status/611569515315507200 https://github.com/opal/opal/issues/941 Yes indeed he was very angered at Elia's (key Opal developer) saying gender reassignment is wrong for young children, and spending like $50,000 on gender reassignment is being out of touch with reality. Like me saying smokers are killing themselves and spending money on 3 packs of cigrarettes a day could be better used. Strand McCutchen - https://github.com/opal/opal/issues/942 (wow what a trooper, he's going to help Opal polish off the Contributor Convenant so it's in a shape they can accept) Ruby Creator - Yukihiro Matsumoto And you must agree after seeing all the evidence that Yukihiro Matsumoto (who is not even a white guy) inventor of ruby must be a jerk for not adopting this wonderful thing to make people feel welcome and respected. What awful person would not. How about me? Let's not forget about Meredith Patterson - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AI53yys3dbA&feature=youtu.be&t=538 What has she done for open source? Please ignore the two white guys in the talk, they are just white guys with white guy opinions.
