Subject: [ruby-talk:7254] Who's using Ruby?

     Just wondering if there was anything in the way of a "Who's using 
     Ruby?" list for people to point PHB's at and say "Look!  So and So is 
     using Ruby, and they love it!, we should too!".  perl.com's success 
     stories are always fun to read too.
     
     It's always so difficult to convince management that something is 
     worthwhile when it's still as young as Ruby is.  Perl is a fairly easy 
     sell, Python is so-so, Ruby...uh?  what's Ruby?.  It'd be nice if 
     great languages could get the attention that not-so-great languages 
     seem to be getting (cough, cough, Java), but alas, it seems as if just 
     being exceptional isn't enough anymore :).  (I like to use that line 
     to explain to my wife why I haven't had a raise lately too :)
     
     Regards,
     Mike
