What we have here is a frankenbuild with code literally transferred  
using USB keys, typed in from emails etc since we couldn’t get access to  
our VPN last night. It’s going to take some cleanup, but after our talk  
it will be a high priority to make a shelveset from what’s on my  
computer and check it in.

Thanks,  
-John

Can’t wait to play with it. Good luck on the presentation as well. Will  
you be posting the slides and demo code in your web site?  
Thanks.

Hi,

Best Wishes to IronRuby Team and OSS Community for their great  
contribution.

Microsoft has proved that it supports Open Source, and finally all the  
rumors of Microsoft neglecting Ruby gets vanished.

I can’t wait for a day when I can deploy my Rails apps to IIS 7 and MS  
Sql 2008. That would be a great day of my life.

Cheers.

Hi John L.,

Great News!

Keep it going.

How about blogging more about this, with Slides/Snaps from Rails  
Conference and a working solution for a trial.

Things have moved much faster after Mix 2008 and now Rails is running at  
RailsConf.

Since much is in order, except few things mentioned on your blog…  
What time frame do you plan do you think IronRuby 1.0 will be out ( RTM  
)

Thanks
