I've been following the JRake development the past week or so and it's starting to look pretty solid. I've figured this would be a great application of JRuby, and I'm glad someone with more time than me decided to start wiring it up :) I had originally planned to make it use Ant tasks, but perhaps there's more value in reimplementing the tasks from scratch to be more Rubyish? My justification was in reusing all the many, many Ant tasks already implemented within a Rake script, but I can see both sides. -- Charles Oliver Nutter, JRuby Core Developer Blogging on Ruby and Java @ headius.blogspot.com Help spec out Ruby today! @ www.headius.com/rubyspec headius@headius.com -- charles.nutter@sun.com
