Absolutely! In fact, the Ruby client is one of the less fully developed ones so having another contributor to it would be a big help to the Qpid project. > I have a wealth of experience with Ruby as well as with Messaging and > Queuing systems. In 2006 I created a ruby open source project RubyWMQ at: > http://rubywmq.rubyforge.org Excellent, that is great experience. I am sure we would all be interested in your thoughts on the API design for messaging in dynamic languages. > One question though, to what degree can we make changes at this stage. For > example, can we break the current interface or can we only extend it with > things such as code blocks. To be honest I am not sure how widely used the current Ruby client is. Therefore I think there is some scope for breaking changes if people can agree that the current API is sub-optimal. I am not sure what a "code block" is since I am not a Ruby developer so I can't really comment on that approach. > Looking forward to making a contribution, albeit a small one, to Apache We would welcome your contribution!
