Well, is that what you want us to tell you? You can heed the advice of
others in this thread, or you can continue to repeat unsubstantiated,
opaque claims.

A quick Google Groups search of your name and the words "not ready"
brings up similar posts in the Python[1] and PHP[2] newsgroups. If
you're genuinely interested in what Ruby can do for you, perhaps you
can start by not trolling--or otherwise being hostile--in what many of
us consider to be one of the friendliest communities on the Internet.

Please forgive me if I've misunderstood your intents.

Sam
