Hi Chris,
well first of all I didn't knew that this newsgroup is limited to just 
some aspects of ruby, maybe you should do some white- or black-listing 
on topics if you think mine wouldn't fit here.
But every question I droped was answered here very fast and correclty 
because as I thought it is obvious that many ppl who uses the Rails 
framework also suscribed to the ruby-list.

And about the rails (not mailing- and not newsgroup) but google.group:
you really think it's clever to be forced to register (when I wanna sign 
up to this list I always get: "You must sign in to Google to complete 
the previous action.") to one of the greatest commercial companys on the 
planet in order to get knowledge about one of the most free programming 
languages on the planet? I don't think so ;)

I mean, I'm sure you also realized that ruby never succeded in the step 
to spread his information over http and any good forums or websites 
about ruby are more rare than unicorns... so please let me this 
newsgroup because it kicks ass :)
