I agree with the closing sentence ;-) Wikis are cool, but as the primary form of Ruby documentation? Please, no! Wikis appeal to the geek world, and a subset of it at that. I believe the original poster's main argument was that Ruby needs better documentation to be accepted *by businesses*. You show me a suit who can get his head around a Wiki, and I'll show you my pet Triceratops. -- Matt Gushee Englewood, Colorado, USA mgushee@havenrock.com http://www.havenrock.com/
