Patrick Log #1 / 5	Ruby definition Having been away from Ruby for a couple of years, I have a few questions... (1) Where is the "official" definition of Ruby? (2) I have seen pages mentioning at least one "Ruby in Ruby" implementation. What is the status of this/these? (3) I have also seen a mention of a "Ruby in Java". Is there one? (4) Finally, what about a dotNET Ruby? I have not seen a mention of this, but it is more difficult to search for given Microsoft's screwy choice of terms. Thanks, Patrick

I think Rubicon is a rather nice definition as well, but it's far from being the "official" definition. Quote: >(2) I have seen pages mentioning at least one "Ruby in Ruby" >implementation. What is the status of this/these? As far as I know, any effort has stalled. Matju was working on MetaRuby and Robert Feldt was working on Ruby VM (to name a couple of potentially related projects), but neither is actively maintaining the code.

I know that work has started, but I have the same problem you do in trying to find it now.

It has indeed! (I personally couldn't catch up w the new developments :-). But the ruby community (thru Matz leadership) has managed to keep Ruby inline w Ruby philosophy (less Ruby loses its own identity ). Quote: > Sigh. > Signing off... cheers :-) -botp
