Hello,

I am a ruby newbie, though I walk through the different Ruby sites, for a couple of weeks.

I am very interested in this languages, cause it seems at first sight that I could make easily some programming tasks.

That was at the beginning after having explored a bit of python, which is interesting, but ruby's syntax and OOP are clearer, but then I was searching for libraries such as twisted-python, I discovered that ruby is quite new, and doesn't a lot of work done as for python or perl.

Then i tried to install some bridge for python, but i failed to compile.

So i am now in the process of exploring if this language, though interesting, has a real future : ruby's father did some good job until now, but what next ? what about AOP ? what about industrial quality, giving ruby to community such as for groovy, that could be also a (good ?)  alternative ?

Waiting for some good informations .

thanks
