Ironruby core - Jan 2008 - IronRuby on Rails or Ruby on Rails... Are we getting it

Hi,

I believe IronRuby is making good progress, though i do not get to see
any news on progress.

Blogs and informative details are totally missing regarding the DLR and
Ironruby progress.

Can any one confirm, whether we shall be getting Ruby on Rails or
IronRuby on Rails with the final version of IronRuby.Is it really worth
waiting for IronRuby or it would be nice to switch to original Ruby on
Rails immediately, without wasting many more months with a hope....?

I have read few good information in the ruby.net VS IronRuby discussion
recently, but that discussion was too far to cover the Ruby on Rails
support with IronRuby.

The only positive answer i could found was an interview of John Lam on
akitaonrails, where he was positive for Rails support with IronRuby.

But even that was not a promise, it was just a hope

Can some one on the developer team please focus on this. I think this
would be really great if we can get it working on IronRuby.

Thanks

SoftMind.

If you want to try Ruby on Rails, I don''t understand why anyone would
wait for IronRuby to run it. When IronRuby runs it, it will run it in
identical manner with classic Ruby, so everything you learned while
trying Ruby on Rails with classic Ruby will not be wasted.

We have always maintained that we will run Rails. It wouldn''t be Ruby
if it couldn''t run Rails.

Hi Seo,

I am too keen on IronRuby since i do not want to leave the .Net 
Platform.

Plain Ruby on Rails will drag me to LAMP world, which i do not want.

I love Ruby and I think it can do wonders as IronRuby.

I need to dive in to get proper information and a right move in the 
right direction.

O.K... Since now i have a confirmation from Mr. John Lam, this has made 
my day and now i can relax and study more hard on this direction and get 
ready for future when IronRuby actually arrives.

Thanks
