Thanks for the notice, I'll keep an eye on your blog.
And now we talk about ruby & java, I'll take the opportunity to ask a
question I haven't had the possibility to answer myself: what will
JSR223 give as possibility? Is it a way for ruby (the C version) to
access java classes? JSR223 started with a limited scope (web apps)
that was widened later on, but up to what point?
