Subject: Re: New to Ruby, need install advice

Yah, I figured launching a Ruby app would be harder then a simple PHP
one.

I guess I'm most interested in integrating the WAMP stack with Ruby
because I've heard you can create interesting integrations between Ruby
and PHP, namely things like creating listeners to do actions (such as a
chat room) without the timeout polling PHP would otherwise require to
create a "live" effect. If I heard wrong, maybe at least learning how to
use my current MySQL install.

All in all, I'm just a bit of a neatfreak when it comes to my files; if
its possible to use the same service to run both, I'd be most happy with
it, and if not, I'll go with a separate Ruby installer (I've already got
Rails Installer downloaded and waiting). I was just hoping to see if the
two could be "merged" easily, or if I need to really learn the
server-side of both techs to get it.

Can you explain what Mongrel is? Is it another server tech like Apache?
