Using the earlier non-released build of my bridge, I created a lap around
WinFX app:

e
was Avalon and Indigo stuff there (it was a flash card app that used Indigo
to pull images out of flickr and used Avalon to render a 3D flash card that
would rotate about its z-axis).

The Indigo stuff wasn't all that well baked as Ruby since I didn't support
generics in that version of my bridge. I still don't in this version, but
it's a super high priority item to get working.

I think the real fun will be to use Ruby to gen Avalon UI's on the fly.
