I am also very much in favor of multithreadedness to be deeply integrated in the core of Ruby. Look at the ease with which you can write concurrent programs in Erlang. No need to think about locking there -- the language takes care of that. Erlang is based on logic variables, they make this easy. I think that logic variables would not fit well into current Ruby. (But maybe I'm wrong... well, I'd be delighted to have logic variables in Ruby... :-) ) But I think that these "partially frozen" or "crystallizing" objects could be a step towards bringing some of that ease of parallel programming into Ruby. On the whole, I'm very pleased how much attention Erlang gets from the Ruby community currently. I think there's really something that can be learned.
