A GeekNight With Ola Bini

JRuby is an implementation of Ruby for the JVM. It gives you unprecedented integration with the Java ecosystem while still having access to great Ruby libraries such as Rails, RSpec and many more. The last year has seen amazing uptake, many new committers, thousands of bugs fixed and lots of new functionality. This talk will give a short introduction to JRuby, and then provide more information about where the project is now and where it is going. It will also introduce some of the fantastic new tools in the JRuby 1.5 release.

About The Speaker:
Ola Bini is a core JRuby developer and is the author of the book Practical JRuby on Rails. He works for ThoughtWorks in Chicago. His technical experience ranges from Java, Ruby and LISP to several open source projects. He likes implementing languages, writing regular expression engines, YAML parsers, blogging, and other similar things that exist at the border of computer science.
