Hi there,  
I’m starting to develop an application that is very demanding in  
semantic capabilities, lots of relations between concepts… I heard  
that ruby was better than any other programming language to manage  
language… Is that true? Why?  
(I still have to choose the language and Python with Django is the  
other option I have, at least for the prototype. I won’t be the main  
programmer, but I have to start developing the idea…)

Thanks to all,

Valma
