From: Dean Wampler Date: 2008-12-20T06:21:35+09:00 Subject: Re: [jruby-user] Last chance for JRubyOne...er...JavaOne proposals Hey, Charlie, I proposed a "polyglot" talk, where I'll make the case for "mixing it up" on the JVM using one (or more) of JRuby, Scala, or Clojure. I intend to discuss the advantages/disadvantages of each language and how to choose what's best for your needs, etc., etc. dean On Fri, Dec 19, 2008 at 3:12 PM, Charles Oliver Nutter wrote: > Today is the last day for JavaOne proposals, and we're really hoping to get > some "real" rubyists showing these Java guys how it's done.
