The ever popular radio voice and blogger -- Barton George had an opportunity to meet up with Charlie Nutter and Thomas Enebo at JavaOne 2008. Check out his podcast, I believe you will find it very enlightening.
Some of the topics they discussed:
- A historical background, Ruby, then Rails, then JRuby.
- What the guys were doing pre-Sun and how Tim Bray lured them to the fiery orb.
- Three licenses is better than one (GPL, CPL, LGPL)
- How JRuby is working with GlassFish and NetBeans.
- The DaVinci machine project, jMaki and what ever happened to AJAX?
- Might we see a JPerl?
- Looking to get more involved with MySQL
