Expecting Rain

It has been a while since I've written about the Ruby project we are undertaking here. Reporting its progress has been lost in the shuffle of writing about bugs and other things.

The project is going well. We're adapting to some of the smaller things about Ruby such as adopting naming conventions (http://wiki.rubygarden.org/Ruby/page/show/RubyStyleGuide), RDoc, and most importantly unit testing. I feel we are writing very clean code right now. It seems that with Ruby you can focus more on the task at hand and proper algorithms rather than language semantics.

I'm very pleased.
