Followup to my original comment: the Github page only has specs. Rubygems has a gem, but it's got binary components without source and obfuscated source (RubyEncoder). I certainly wouldn't load this code anyplace that wasn't heavily sandboxed. I have no evidence that it's malicious, but have the same amount that it *isn't*. There's some interesting ideas in there, but nothing interesting enough that I'd want to bring un-debuggable, un-updatable mystery code in that also locks me to MRI. The barrage of "announcement" posts across rails-talk, ruby, ruby-dev, and ruby-core certainly haven't helped make a positive impression. --Matt Jones -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
