The problem is not Ruby vs JRuby. I talked about JRuby, because I readed 
thath with JRuby I can get something like "compiled" files and in Ruby 
not. I don't know the advantages of JRuby against Ruby. I suppose the 
access to Java libraries is one of them. I will check all of this when 
have time.

Yes, but the source still there. They can open the rb files, modify 
them, and start again the application to see (or broke) the changes. 
With bytecode this is not possible without compiling again (AFAIK). For 
this I asked about something compilated (to native code or bytecode). I 
know (or suppose) there are decompilers, but everything can be 
decompiled if you want, but this is not the same as plain files with the 
code. Probably, an obfuscating application could be enough, I don't 
know.

> Caution: .pyc files can be decompiled to realtively well-structured
> Python code.

I named Python only because I wanted to compare with something to what I 
want. The "little" ERP I'm developing, needs to be deployed to desktop 
without the possibility of touch/see the source. For website, If I 
develop it in Rails, is not a problem if the source is visible for the 
moment.

Could be interesting if code could be made compatible between VMs withou 
much complex, so, If I can't deploy the app in a Java enviroment, I can 
use MRI.

As I wrote, for the moment, I'm evaluating, I'm looking for Access 
Database (noSQL?), GUI development, Mobile possibilities (Android? 
iPhone?) and so on, but, If I can't lock de code........
