Well, my contribution pales next to the  volume of detail you assembled.

I did a little show-and-tell at the Phoenix Ruby group last night, and
passed around some recent books.      I encouraged the group to get
your book as a followup to Programming Ruby.  It pretty much covers
*everything*.

Quite impressive.

In some ways it is like the Ruby Cook Book from O'Reilly, but that
book does not (based on my sporadic reading) have the same sort of
cohesive thread offering more technical background detail.

I'm glad I could make a contribution, but I can't imagine the effort
required to get all that information together.

Everyone should go get a copy.
