The first issue of Ruby Code & Style hit the Web just before RubyConf
2005, and it’s time to get back in gear and roll out the next one.
Ruby Code & Style is a free peer-reviewed on-line journal created by and
for the Ruby community.
We focus on bringing high-quality articles, written by Rubyists all over
the world, showcasing the strengths of Ruby and the ingenuity of its
users in solving real-life, non-trivial problems.
We’re looking for technical Ruby articles primarily geared toward
experienced Ruby developers. Submissions are peer reviewed by our
remarkable advisory board, which includes eminent members of the Ruby
community.
This is an opportunity to share your knowledge and experience with
fellow Rubyists, and a unique chance to have your work vetted by some of
the best Ruby minds around.
While the first issue offered three articles, we’re looking now at
publishing work as it becomes available and suitable for release. This
should improve the overall turnaround time, and help keep the zine fresh
and exciting.
Don’t know if you ever got any replies to this, but I’d like to
request a specific article.
I’d love to see an article about using Ruby to build a DSL. Seems
Austin Z. had mentioned that he had started work on one, not sure
if he’s finished it yet.
I see a lot of DSL’s out there, and a lot of talk about how Ruby makes
building DSL’s easier, but no comprehensive tutorial/overview for the
topic.
Any volunteers? Are there articles out there, and I just haven’t found
them?

Jim W. held a (reportedly very good) presentation on DSLs
at RubyConf2005. At least Ryan D. is hosting a PDF version:

The response was nothing close to what I had hoped. But I, too, would
like to see a good technical article on DSLs.
I’d like to ‘sign up’ to do an article on creating DSLs with Ruby,
though I
can’t really start working on something like that until after
mid-February
(after my thesis defense :). Also, I’m not sure that the two DSLs I’ve
created
using Ruby (RHDL - Ruby Hardware Description Language and QDL- Quantum
Design
Language) have enough mainstream appeal, so I’d probably have to come up
with
some other example DSL.

I’d like to contribute, but I’m so bogged down here right now that I
won’t have time to write anything until at least next (solar) year.
Besides I’m a relative newbie, so my ‘code & style’ is probably not the
best - still I’d be happy to help
