Just in case some of you missed it, Pragmatic Programmers just published their first of a series of short, PDF-only books. This one is on qtRuby. It would be great to have something like this for wxRuby. I don''t think wxRuby is quite ready to this (yet), but I thought I''d plant the idea.

Caleb Tennis has just finished a short book on the QtRuby library, which integrates the cross-platform Qt3 library into Ruby. It discusses how to create cross-platform GUI applications for Linux and OS X in Ruby. It covers installation, basic and advanced programming, event models, and Korundum. See http://pragmaticprogrammer.com/titles/ ctrubyqt/index.html for more details and an extract. This is the first in our new line of _Fridays_: short, PDF-only books on a single topic. (There''s more information on Fridays at http:// pragmaticprogrammer.com/fridays.html)<http://pragmaticprogrammer.com/fridays.html)> I''m always looking for more material to support the Ruby community: if you feel you have either a full book or a Friday in you, drop me a line.

That would be a great thing to have. I agree we''re not quite there yet. I have a domain that I am in the process of getting set up. Part of my goal for the site is for it to be a learning resource for Ruby.
