Subject: Re: JRuby scripting for Mozilla?

I just wanted to mention JavaXPCOM ;-)

In my company we are working on a (commercial) web-extraction tool based 
on eclipse, which has a XULRunner 
(http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/XULRunner) window embedded into 
it. The communication happens through JavaXPCOM - I also wrote a Java 
connector implementing org.w3c interfaces (which will be probably part 
of Eclipse3.3), so I do know JavaXPCOM a little bit... As it's name 
says, it is a pure Java to XPCOM bridge... I did not have that much time 
(yet) to play around with JRuby on these levels but I would be very 
interested if this could be made to work together...
Unfortunately I don't have time for this just right now, but please LMK 
if someone manages to gets it working!
