[LRUG] Some thoughts about non-blocking APIs in Ruby libraries

[Matthew Willson]

This time I've blogged it first!

http://blog.playlouder.com/index.php/2008/05/12/of-mysqlruby-eventmachine-and-the-need-for-non-blocking-apis/

May be of interest to anyone else using http://rubyeventmachine.com/  
or doing async socket server stuff, or trying to use MySQL in a  
threaded situation in Ruby.

Any thoughts on this welcome (especially anyone with a bit more  
knowledge of ruby's guts, concurrency issues etc...)
