Hi Saurabh:

Ruby books is a very good idea.

It will be helpful to create a volunteer team for RubyCon so
that we can scale the activities and also have an annual Ruby
event. what say ?

thanks
Saifi.

Yeah ! I will start sharing tips and people can start posting problems. I will Retweet this too so that many people
can join the group.

I also wanted to share a new technology I learnt over past week

Saurabh

Yup shoes is awesome. Why is awesome.
BTW is anyone here using ruby or rails for enterprise deployments?
What have been the challenges, do you use the standard ruby1.8, ruby1.9 VM or Jruby.

Even, i have the same question : what is the extent of Rails
penetration for Enterprise deployments ?

[Saurabh@Safew]

Rails in Enterprise has been catching up fast, We have ourselves built
2 enterprise
applications in Rails.

Check this Project http://www.railserp.com/ It's an Open Source Rails
ERP which
intends to bring Rails to the enterprise.

There have been Rapid Developments like http://www.modrails.com/ which
when used with
http://www.rubyenterpriseedition.com/ uses 33% less memory than normal
Rails applications.

We have not got a chance to Use JRuby and Ruby VM in Production.
However,the key challenges
with JRuby would be to keep up with the pace of development in the
Rails community.

Rails 3.0 is announced and supposed to include Merb Internally, which
means Rails will
have flexible ORM and all other merb's features included natively into
it.

Final word on this is, it is catching up pretty fast, but is still
only 2-3% of the entire enterprise market.

Thanks

Saurabh

Rails will not catch up in the enterprise if it will continue
to leak around 20,000 string objects every 10 seconds.

If Ruby has to succeed in the enterprise, it must stay away from
the current Rails implementation.
