Subject: Re: What would you like to know about JRuby?

I love that this thread is revived a year later :)

So far here's what we're hoping to show at RubyConf this year, if
we're accepted:

* Android support in JRuby
* "Real" Java class support, enabling things like Hibernate
* 2D and 3D games and game libraries
* Desktop app development using various frameworks
* Cloud deployments a la GAE and EY Cloud
* Maybe a quick feature roundup, including FFI, 1.9 support, etc
* New, cooler Java scripting demonstrations, like the MIDI library stuff
* New compiler work for better Java integration and improved performance
* Integration with other JVM languages like Clojure and Scala
* Roundup of new JRuby users in the last year

There's too much to cover...so feel free to cast a vote here if
there's specific things you'd really like to hear about.
