Hello Simon,

First, i would like to thank you to try to answer my questions.

The fact is that I am a little bit disappointed by the libraries, and the
evolution :

Some things/projects are conducted very well and fast, such as ruby on
rails, and I recognize a lot of other ones.

But on the hand, another lot of projects/libraries are present but somewhat
outdated at best, going even to deprecated/inoperatives such as the
ruby-python bridge, that IMO
Should be one of the most well maintained because of all work/llibraries
that it would make accessible, such the library I mentionned :
twisted-python, and also a lot of python work.

And last but not least, remember what the community said about the evolution
for the java language : the java language, though evolving through some king
of JCP, has been seen by the programmers community, because it was SUN's
property.

So compare the latter scheme for Java, with the present one for ruby that is
maintained and evolving by only one man, even though as much brilliant as
you want.

So my problematic would be to consider this language as mature enough for
corporate/entreprise dvpt or not, depending on the upper questions.

Thanks

P. Guichard

Here is an AOP package for ruby
http://aspectr.sourceforge.net/

IIRC Ruby2 is going to have some AOP support.

Can you elaborate.. I don't understand.
