I may be looking at a project in RoR that will need to tie into something along the lines of Python''s Twisted ( http://twistedmatrix.com ). Does anyones know if Ruby has an equivalent to Twisted yet? I''m not as familiar with Python over Ruby right now and like to stick with Ruby if at all possible.

Why do you need an event based framework? Don''t get me wrong I use twisted and it''s great for some things, but depending on what you are using it for it might not be any better than using ruby threads. And using an event based framework like twisted where everything has to be non blocking is definitely a learning curve.

MUES is a Ruby-based engine intended for MUDs and MUDlikes, which is what Twisted started its life as. There might be something usable in there, although the project looks semi-abandoned. It was at mues.faeriemud.org last I checked.
