[MacRuby-devel] question about goals for ruby module compatibility with macruby

[Laurent Sansonetti]

Hi Tim,

As Matt mentioned on a separate mail, rubygems should be fully  
supported (modulo C extensions) in the upcoming release, which should  
be out before the end of the year if everything goes well.

I can't pronounce for Rails at this point, but we are approaching it  
bit by bit, and we might look at it sooner than planned, since our  
major objective (Cocoa support) is mostly complete. Surely MacRuby  
will be in a better shape next year :-)
