Vit-core (visual identity team, which maintains ruby-lang.org) has
decided to switch to a GitHub-based approach for maintaining
ruby-lang.org. We’re currently working on moving all content from the
previous site (and porting it to Markdown) so there’s not much to do
yet, but we do have some important decisions to take and I welcome
all of you to take a part in the discussion.
So, once again: https://github.com/rubylang/ruby-lang.org. Improve it,
fork it, open issues, send pull requests and help us make a better
ruby-lang.org!
(FYI: you can subscribe and the read archives of the vit-core mailing
list at http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/vit-core)

Just wondering why is it not under The Ruby Programming Language · GitHub account,
which would make more sense …

Yes, can we please move the site project to that account? I’m getting
hate mail because we didn’t do that.

This sounds great. I’ve been using Markdown as a source file format
for all my static content [1] and it’s been a joy, especially in
combination with Showoff for slides and Erector for web pages.
But Markdown isn’t perfect. There are several gaps and ambiguities in
the language, and often you have to insert raw HTML, which sucks. At
the suggestion of some colleagues at an open source teaching company
[2] I’ve been looking into using AsciiDoc instead. Before you get too
far into your porting process you should probably evaluate it as an
alternative to Markdown.
In addition to the richer and saner syntax, one thing AsciiDoc has
over Markdown is that there seem to be more professional publishing
companies that use it (e.g. O’Reilly) so there’s a good tool chain for
converting AsciiDoc into DocBook, PDF, etc.
To be clear, this isn’t a full-throated endorsement, but I’m strongly
considering making the leap and I’d love to hear your opinions and
experiences, and share mine.
[1] my teaching projects, mostly in markdown
GitHub - alexch/ruby_notes
GitHub - alexch/workshop: materials for Ruby on Rails intro workshop
GitHub - ultrasaurus/test-first-teaching: homework assignments for teaching ruby
[2] Marakana does corporate training and makes all their materials
available open source in a variety of formats; they mostly use
AsciiDoc for source files. http://marakana.com

Not on Windows, there isn’t. Unless you call “Install Cygwin…” a
good start to get a tool chain installed, that is.

A method of solution is perfect if we can forsee from the start,
and even prove, that following that method we shall attain our aim.

Or, you can use Python to convert an asciidoc source to docbook / latex
/ chm /xhtml11, … For instance :
‘C:\Python26\python.exe C:\Python26\Lib\asciidoc\asciidoc.py -b xhtml11
-a toc -o out.xhtml source.asc’…

Please start a new thread, don’t hijack an existing one.

In the new thread, show what you’ve done so far, and what problem
you’re seeing.

Personally I would like to see a fast (read c-based) standalone RDoc
markup tool with some beefed up markup support (like markdown’s code
brackets).
The doc tool used may seem secondary, but I actually think that a
solid Ruby-based tool would give a boost to Ruby documentation
efforts, letting Ruby steer it’s own ship and improve it’s
documentation (and websites) on it’s own terms.

Isn’t it? I mean, what else do Windows developers do these days? I’m
assuming anyone writing Ruby documentation knows their way around a
command line and probably a C compiler.
Hi,
The project has been moved to https://github.com/ruby/ruby-lang.org.
Preview is available at http://ruby.github.com/ruby-lang.org (maybe we
could get a beta.ruby-lang.org or something).
There are on-going debates about content, design, structure

I dont’ like the effect of “bold letter” when passing the pointer over
the menu entries. It moves the rest of the menu.

I’m seeing the same issue here. The highlighting effect is also very
very minor, i.e. almost not noticeable. Maybe some more tuning on the
brightness on the background … ?
