[LRUG] Rocktober

[Pratik Naik]

I hope you didn't mean groovy - http://groovy.codehaus.org/ ;-)

I'd like to hear about :

- Ruby C extensions for improved performance
- Various comet implementations which can be used with rails. e.g
Shootring star, Juggernaut
- Object/Document based dbs. CouchDB, gemstone with ruby/rails
- I always wonder about future of ruby and how players like Rubinus,
JRuby, MIR are going to co-exist in 2008, where will rails stand
between them..
