Hi Matt,

I would happily spend some time on MacRuby, but I have no idea where to start.
I downloaded the experimental branch - was not really sure to go from
there but tried running some simple ruby code with the miniruby
executable - it hung so I assume I was doing something wrong.

Anyway I was wondering whether you could give me a quick run down on
how to start investigating learning and experimenting with the
experimental branch. Any links would be helpful. I would like to start
as simple as possible - but down the track one particular part that i
would be interested in is tracing the dispatch from bridgesupport
method to opengl function.

I can't really spend much time until after the Amsterdam conference however.

Speaking of which is it you that cannot make it? Pity if so - I was
looking fwd to your talk as I have some very flakey code which
interfaces with some traditional (ie non REST) webservices - I was
hoping for some (yet more) tips ;-).

Cheers,
J
